New Hospital in Collingwood
 The announcement was shared in just a few short minutes, but it took so many weeks, months and years of work prior to December’s News Conference that will change this community forever. By now you may know, our government is investing up to $95.5 million to build a new Collingwood General and Marine Hospital. It’s a generational project that will benefit this growing community and others for decades to come. Providing world-class healthcare is a top priority of our government. This immense project will connect more people and families in Collingwood and south Georgian Bay communities to more convenient, high-quality care, close to home.  We all depend on our local hospital. It’s a pillar of the community. From the birth of a child to palliative care and everything in between, the hospital is there. This new funding is in addition to the over $15.5 million investment previously provided by the Ontario government to support the early planning for the redevelopment of Collingwood General and Marine Hospital.  Now the next phase of this elaborate project begins. The ministry will work with Collingwood General and Marine Hospital to complete detailed planning and design for this project. A construction schedule will be confirmed once future planning is complete and the project is tendered and awarded. We will keep you posted in our monthly newsletter and podcast on the ongoing development. A Quick Year in Review !! 2024 was a year of tremendous investment in Simcoe-Grey. In addition to the hospital in Collingwood, Alliston’s Stevenson Memorial Hospital is undergoing an expansion. Our government announced its investing in new schools in Wasaga Beach and Essa. Also in 2024, Honda Canada announced plans for a massive, job-creating investment and our government is investing heavily in infrastructure projects Collingwood, Alliston and the Town of the Blue Mountains.
