Building Ontario’s Future in Health Innovation

August 19, 2025

Ontario families deserve reliable access to safe, locally made medication. That’s why our government is investing $5 million in the University of Ottawa’s new Advanced Medical Research Centre. This funding is part of the over $200 million Ontario Wet Labs Program, which is strengthening our province’s life sciences sector and building the foundation for long-term health security.

By supporting this state-of-the-art facility, we are helping researchers develop and manufacture the medicines of tomorrow—right here at home. This investment will ensure that Ontarians continue to have access to the care they need, while creating good jobs and positioning Ontario as a leader in medical innovation for generations to come.
