New Democrat Leader Jagmeet Singh says an NDP government would convene provincial and territorial leaders, experts and workers to set national standards for nursing homes, and tether those benchmarks to $5 billion in federal funding.

In addition, the Government of Ontario announced the extension of its occupancy protection funding for long-term care residences until February 28, 2021 in support of infection and prevention protocols. This will support long-term care providers in limiting rooms with three or four beds to a maximum of two residents per room.
The Government of Ontario continues to fund an increased pay of $3/hour for personal support workers in long-term care communities. We are grateful for the government’s continued support of our frontline team members, which has been in place since the beginning of November 2020, including retroactive payments for the month of October 2020.
