OTTAWA – The national daycare program is unfair because it covers only the federal government’s preferred form of care, not the many forms of care families actually use. Funding parents directly would be fairer and give families more flexibility to meet their needs. The minister’s announcement doesn’t change the fact that most families see no benefit from this costly program.
– Peter Jon Mitchell, family program director of think tank Cardus
