Canada’s biggest hospital will be in Mississauga, and construction starts now

 

Construction on what will be the largest hospital in Canada starts Wednesday morning in Mississauga.

When it opens to its first patients in 2033, The Peter Gilgan Mississauga Hospital is expected to be without rival anywhere in the country at some 2.8 million square feet in size and 22 storeys in height.

What’s been described as a state-of-the-art health-care centre that will cost an estimated $16 billion to build (some $4 billion over budget, according to the Office of the Auditor General of Ontario’s annual report for 2024) will also house the 200,000-sq.-ft. Shah Family Hospital for Women and Children.

That facility will become Ontario’s first health-care centre to focus exclusively on the well-being of women and children, hospital officials in Mississauga said earlier.
