British Columbia: Premier David Eby and Health Minister Adrian Dix visited the construction site of the new Surrey Hospital and BC Cancer Centre, which began a year ago. Eby praised the project’s scale, emphasizing its long-term durability and earthquake resilience. The hospital, a critical addition to Surrey’s healthcare infrastructure, is one of several projects underway, addressing the city’s rapid growth and existing healthcare challenges. The new hospital is expected to be completed by 2029, opening in 2030, and will add 168 beds and a second emergency department to the community. The project is a significant issue in the upcoming provincial election, especially given past decisions by opposition leaders regarding healthcare infrastructure in Surrey.
