William Osler Health Centre recognizes Canadian Sikh community with naming of "Guru Nanak Emergency Services Department" at new Brampton Hospital

BRAMPTON, ON, March 7 /CNW/ - William Osler Health Centre (WOHC) has
announced that the Emergency Department at the new Brampton Hospital campus
scheduled to open in 2007 will be named the "Guru Nanak Emergency Services
Department".

"The Board of Directors of the hospital recognize the size, scope and
contributions to our society by the Canadian Sikh community living and working
in our hospital's catchment area," says Bryan H. Held, WOHC Board Chair. "This
is a fitting and lasting tribute to the Canadian Sikh and South Asian
community."

The idea to name the new Brampton Hospital Emergency Department in
recognition of the Canadian Sikh community was put forward in April 2004. A
Naming Task Force examined the issue and recommended a number of criteria for
use now and in the future for decisions about naming recognition for a
specific community group. Among them was that the recognition be permanent and
sustainable.

In conjunction with this naming opportunity, members of the Canadian Sikh
community have committed to assist William Osler Health Centre Foundation with
raising funds to support the new hospital. "The hospital has taken a great
step forward to recognize the Sikh community. The greater community needs to
raise 30 per cent of the total cost of the new hospital. It's our job now to
assist with the fundraising endeavours associated with the new Brampton
Hospital campus," says Foundation Board Member Ramandeep Kaur Grewal.
