Hospital alleges its floors aren’t flat, files $100M lawsuit against builder

Humber River Health is suing the consortium contracted to build and maintain its Toronto hospital for $100 million, alleging that negligent design and construction is creating health and safety problems for patients and staff.

The lawsuit, filed in early April, alleges that a “sizable portion” of the hospital’s floors are not level or flat and that some of the flooring itself is deteriorating.

“Floor levelness is a critical operational and safety issue,” reads Humber River Health’s claim, filed in Ontario Superior Court.


Can’t build subway lines, can’t build streetcar lines, can’t build hospitals, can build a fancy eco barn! Is it graft? Is it societal decline?
