The Harper minority government broke the Child Care promise by refusing to honor the provincial-federal government agreements signed in 2005 that would provide $5 billion in federal funding over five years (2004/05 to 2009/10) to create a quality, national child care system in Canada. While the Harper government's taxable family allowance will help some families, it does not create the sustainable child care spaces that are desparately needed. |
