Horgan focuses on health care, industry in northwest B.C. campaign stops

TERRACE, B.C. — Premier John Horgan is campaigning in British Columbia’s northwest today with a promise to complete a long-awaited hospital expansion and replacement project.

Horgan says a New Democrat win on Oct. 24 would ensure the completion of a new and expanded Mills Memorial Hospital in Terrace.

The New Democrat leader says the budget for the $441 million project has been approved and the hospital will be complete in 2024.

Horgan says the previous B.C. Liberal government promised to replace Mills Memorial Hospital but never did.
