HHS ranked fourth in Canada’s Top 40 Research Hospitals 2020 by Research Infosource Inc., an independent, leading source of ranking information on Canadian research hospitals, universities, colleges and corporations. Each year, it releases results on the top 40 research hospitals in the country, based on total research spending.

In a separate category for Canada’s 19 large hospital systems, HHS earned a place in the `Winners Circle’ by ranking third in hospital intensity, which represents research spending as a portion of total institution spending.
