The Long-Term Care Home Capital Development Funding Policy, 2020 uses four market segments to determine construction funding subsidy (CFS) and development grants.

The amount of construction funding subsidy and development grant that operators are eligible for will depend on the market segment of the project.

The market segments are:

  • large urban - single-tier or upper-tier regional municipalities with a population greater than 500,000
    • single-tier municipalities include Ottawa, Toronto and Hamilton
    • upper-tier regional municipalities include Durham, Halton, Peel, York and Waterloo
  • urban - population centres greater than 100,000 not already captured in the large urban market segment
  • mid-size - population centres greater than 10,000 but less than 100,000 or urban and rural areas with strong ties to a large urban, urban or mid-size centre
  • rural - population centres less than 10,000 or areas without strong ties to a large urban, urban or mid-size centre
