“With an approved contract for M. Sullivan and Son Limited to build the new Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital, we’ve reached the finish line after a long journey together. Our government is turning its promise into action,” said Bay of Quinte MPP Todd Smith.” I’m looking forward to seeing shovels in the ground this summer on this state-of-the-art health care facility.
“Congratulations to Quinte Health and the entire community on your unwavering commitment to this project.”
