We heard Mr. Lessard earlier today using the phrase “if you don't want to use it, you don't have to” in regard to child care. A lot of people say that about the Liberal plan, but what they don't say is that you do have to pay for it. To illustrate, if we wanted to save time and cut out the middleman, you could simply go down to the day care where your neighbours take their kids and you and your husband could write a cheque to cover part of the costs of their day care. How does that make you feel?
