It is time for our government to invest adequately in child care and for Canada to stop lagging behind among our international community of wealthy nations.
EXCERPTS
Many Canadian parents know that paying for child care for young children while they go to work is painfully expensive. But do they (and our federal government) know that child care costs in Canada are among the highest in the world?
This not only hurts families, this hurts our children. And it hurts Canada’s economy. If the Trudeau government truly wants to help the middle class and women’s equality as its party line touts, then it must make higher direct investments in child care.
