Ontario Premier Doug Ford unveils first new privately operated facility to be given an operating licence.

Ontario will chip in a total of $155 million over two years to create 57 new centres.

Thirty-five of the centres have been licensed to offer MRI and CT scans, while another 22 will deal with GI endoscopy procedures.

The new centres will help alleviate the strain on public hospitals, the provincial government said.
