About St. Boniface Hospital

Hospitals and Health Care
1001-5000

St. Boniface Hospital, a work of charity of the Sisters of Charity of Montreal “Grey Nuns”, is a Catholic tertiary health care facility affiliated with the University of Manitoba.

Marguerite d’Youville, founder of the Grey Nuns, dedicated her life to the poor, revealing the compassionate love of God and trust in Divine Providence.

Sharing in the charisma of Marguerite d’Youville, and in her innovation, leadership and pioneering, the Grey Nuns and committed laity continue to witness God’s love and compassion in the care of those they serve.

St. Boniface Hospital has been providing leadership in health care on behalf of Manitobans since it was first established by the Grey Nuns in 1871. Located at the fork of the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, we were the first hospital in Western Canada, established in St. Boniface as a small four-bed facility to meet the health care needs of the people of the new province of Manitoba (founded in 1870).
