Speaking of the Vaughan Hospital, its first official step was when the City of Vaughan established the Vaughan Health Care Foundation in 2004, and independent non-profit organization with the primary task to "bring a hospital and ancillary services" to Vaughan. The Ontario government gave official approval in 2007 and a search for a suitable property. Fourteen years later, the hospital became a full service hospital in June 2021.
Using that timeline as a guide, provided a piece of land can be found quickly (it took two years in Vaughan), the new hospital might be open sometime between 2035 and 2040.
I used the London Hospital campus as that was the only large campus that I was familiar with.
As for the location, I'm also reminded that when K-W hospital was being proposed, Waterloo and Berlin were arguing about who would host the jointly funded hospital. In 1895, Joseph Seagram settled the dispute by donating a parcel of land on the border between the two.
