I talked to my career coach who was also acting as the recruiter on the Mississauga job. He said the interviewer liked me, and thought I had the skills to do the job, but got scared off when I asked to work flex time to accomodate a weekly medical appointment. He thought I might get overwhelmed and not be able to do the job.

Lesson learned - do not bring up the need for flex time, until the job offer is firmly in hand.
