Ontario Building and Expanding 16 New Teaching Clinics to Connect 300,000 More People to Primary Care

January 14, 2026

Our government is protecting Ontario’s health-care system and leading the country with investments that reduce wait times and connect more people to a primary care provider.

As part of our $2.1 billion Primary Care Action Plan, we’re investing up to $8 million to support planning for 16 new and expanded primary care teaching clinics across the province to connect 300,000 more people to primary care.

These new primary care teaching clinics will further protect our health-care system by training the next generation of primary care clinicians, right here in Ontario.

This builds on our government’s unprecedented investments in primary care and our plan to connect every Ontarian to a primary care provider by 2029.

Through Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care, our government continues to take bold and decisive action to grow the province’s highly skilled health-care workforce and ensure people and their families have access to high-quality care, closer to home, for generations to come.
