Earlier this year, Canadian real estate developer Orlando Corporation pledged to donate up to C$75m ($56.5m) to Trillium Health Partners. 

Of the donation, C$50m will be used to build the future home of The Peter Gilgan Mississauga Hospital, while C$10m will go towards developing a two-storey mental health inpatient unit in the new hospital.

The remaining C$15m will be used to facilitate Trillium Health Partners’ Institute for Better Health, which aims to promote research and innovation in healthcare.
