A new chapter for Stayner, and a place to call home.

Congratulations to Stayner Care Centre on their grand opening and the start of something special for residents, families, and the entire community.

This new 128-bed home brings modern, comfortable spaces and a true sense of community to seniors in Simcoe County. And it is already strengthening the local economy, by generating $69 million in GDP and $48.2 million in labour income through construction alone.

This is what it looks like to protect Ontario’s future. Building long-term care means creating homes where people belong, while supporting jobs, growth, and care close to home.

Long-term care does not stand apart from the health system. We are a vital part of it.

Homes across Ontario are strengthening partnerships with hospitals, primary care, housing, and community services. Building a more connected future for the people who call our homes their own.

There is urgency. And there is opportunity.

Now it’s time to share what’s working.

Most of the world’s eyes are on the return to the moon through the Artemis mission.

But here in Ontario, that same spirit of exploration is already changing how we think about aging.

Researchers at the Schlegel-UW Research Institute for Aging in Waterloo are working directly with astronauts aboard the International Space Station. Together, they are studying heart and brain health in space to better understand how we age here on Earth.

It is a powerful reminder that long-term care is not standing still. It is evolving. It is innovating. It is reaching further than many might expect.

Before anything else, there is a caregiver.

Today, we recognize the 4.2 million Ontarians caring for someone they love. A number that will continue to grow in the years ahead.

We know this often comes while balancing work, family, and personal well-being. Nearly half report distress.

Because caregivers are not on the margins of our system. They are foundational to it.

Long-term care is part of that circle of support. Ensuring that when needs become more complex, families like Maria and Carlo’s are not left to carry it alone.

Today, and every day, we thank you.

More than 200 of Ontario’s long-term care homes are located in rural communities. Many are older homes that need to be rebuilt so that rural seniors can continue to age in place in their home communities.

Dundas Manor in Wi******er is one project already well underway. Rebuilding this much-needed home will add more spaces for seniors who need the care and support that long-term care provides.

Construction of this new home is contributing $69 million to GDP and $48 million in labour income. Once complete, the redeveloped Dundas Manor will be part of a campus of care, helping to integrate the LTC home into the broader health care system and ensuring residents can conveniently connect to the care they need.

Rural homes like Broadview Nursing Home in Smiths Falls are vital to their communities. Replacing an older home with an up-to-date building has made it possible for seniors who need care to stay close to people and places they love – and for nearly 170 people to continue to have jobs in the community.

Construction in rural communities also brings major economic benefits. Building Broadview Nursing Home contributed $69 million to GDP and $48.2 million in labour income.

Long-term care homes are part of the fabric of the communities they serve.

In Barrie, construction of the Village of Innis Landing is underway and will bring 192 new long-term care spaces, generating $103.5 million in GDP and $72.3 million in labour income during construction.

When the Village opens, it will become the new home of the Coleman Care Centre family, continuing nearly 40 years of care in Barrie. Located in the heart of the city and close to transit and community services, Innis Landing will carry that legacy forward while supporting local jobs and keeping care close to home.

“Too many seniors are aging in isolation.”

In this episode, Minister Natalia Kusendova-Bashta shares a vision for long-term care homes as places of connection — not just for those who live there, but for seniors across the community.

Because aging well is not just about staying at home. It is about belonging.
