Four labs damaged in flood at mental health hospital in Montreal

January 27, 2026

Four labs were damaged after burst pipes sent water pouring through an aging building at a Montreal mental health hospital and research centre on Monday, in what a staff member describes as the latest sign the facility is in desperate need of repair.

Video of the incident shows water raining down onto equipment in one of the labs, as a waterlogged ceiling tile gives way and crashes to the floor.
