Legislation is not a guarantee of anything, but it certainly solidifies and provides a structure that is more difficult to undo. So legislation is a good beginning where we have nothing else. I agree that other things have to be in place and we need to have some standards.
Quebec jurisdiction is recognized in the child care act that is being proposed, and the transfer of funds is meant to respect the significant progress that Quebec has made. The OECD report holds Quebec up as a model for North America in terms of early learning and child care. Federal standards have a long way to go to catch up to Quebec.
