The MUHC is a merger of five teaching hospi- tals affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine at McGill University—the Montreal Children’s, Montreal General, Royal Victoria, and Montreal Neurological hospitals, as well as the Montreal Chest Institute. Building on the tradition of medical leadership of the founding hospitals, our goal is to provide patient care based on the most advanced knowledge in the health care field, and to contribute to the development of new knowledge. We are proud of the reputation for excellence of our clinical programs, research and teaching MNH 5 THE MUHC AT A GLANCE: • The six clinical missions of the MUHC: The Montreal Children’s Hospital, Medicine (including Emergency Medicine), Surgery, Neurosciences, Mental Health and Women’s Health • Each year, the MUHC receives over 800,000 ambu- latory visits, including emergency department visits, and over 35,000 inpatient stays • There are over 1,000 physicians and 13,000 health- care and other personnel working at the MUHC • Each year, close to 2,000 people train at the MUHC, including some 815 medical and surgical residents, 150 medical students, 800 nurses and hundreds of allied-health students • The Research Institute of the MUHC is the largest medical and life sciences research facility of its kind in Canada The decision by the five partner hospitals to come together under one administrative structure was the first step in our plans to build a new health centre (see page 21). This new centre will ensure that the McGill hospitals continue to provide the very best in patient care, teaching and research. This booklet is directed to our patients and their fam- ilies. It contains all the necessary information to make you feel as comfortable as possible during your hos- pital stay. Should you not find the answer(s) to your question(s) on the following pages, please feel free to call the MNH main number (514-398-6644) or to ask a member of our dedicated staff for help. It is important for us to make sure that you and your families are as well informed as possible.

  • The City and the St. Lawrence – Analysis of Development Issues and Potential
    CHAPTER ONE The Montréal Harbourfront: A History The City and the St. Lawrence – Analysis of Development Issues and Potential Introduction The story of Montréal's old harbour is at the heart of much of Canada's economic, political and social his- tory, and can consequently be considered of national significance. It is a story rooted in its geography, which combines three features highly conducive to the development of a dynamic port. First, the area forms a natural harbour- an essential precondition for the settlement of New France during the 17th century, when rivers were the only important links to the outside world. It is also situated at the confluence of three major waterways offering access to the interior of the North American continent (the 8 St. Lawrence, Ottawa and Richelieu rivers). Finally, the harbour is located at the western boundary of the navigable section of the St. Lawrence. Since navigation was hampered by the Lachine Rapids, it was for a significant time an obligatory stopping point, as well as a hub for the exploration and development of the hinterland. Birthplace of the modern port of Montréal (today North America's largest inland fresh- water port), the old harbourfront is also, more broadly, the cradle of Montréal and its surroundings. Figure 1.1 Plan of the canal proposed by the Sulpicians (not construct- ed), designed to bypass the Lachine Rapids. Plan by Gaspard-Joseph Chaussegros de Léry, 1733.
