WITH THE 2025 EDITION OF THE TOP100 PROJECTS REPORT a major milestone was achieved as the
total project value reached $300 billion. To put that in perspective, it took 12 years for the report to hit the
$300-billion mark.
For 2025, 15 new projects—worth $22 billion— were added, including six healthcare projects, three
energy projects and a pair of water/wastewater projects. Half of the new hospital projects are in Ontario: the
Weeneebayko Area Health Authority Redevelopment, CAMH’s Phase 1D Redevelopment, and the Toronto Western
Hospital Patient Tower. Also new to list are the Red Deer Regional Hospital Expansion, the new Prince Albert Victoria
Hospital, and St. Paul’s Hospital’s Clinical Support and Research Centre.
Overall, the transit sector again leads the Top100 Projects Report with nearly one quarter (24) of the projects,
valued at $121 billion, followed by the buildings sector (34 projects, $61 billion), the energy sector (nine projects,
$47 billion), the transportation sector (18 projects, $35 billion), and the water-wastewater, communications, and
remediation sector (15 projects, $36 billion).
