I want to reinforce this. I talked about dealing with inequality through building stronger communities and social cohesion. Early learning and child care do that. Obviously, there are huge benefits and lots of evidence to support the benefit to kids of putting them in school earlier, with full-day kindergarten. As a mom of a six-year-old, I see the benefits in my son.
The other benefit is that once you're attached to a school, your family is attached to a school and attached to a community. If you consider a new Canadian, for example, coming in, feeling very isolated and really unsure, when their kids start school, all of a sudden the family is part of a community as well. Many women who are staying at home in very traditional roles, as new Canadians, feeling very isolated, are now all of a sudden interacting—dropping their kids at school, speaking to other parents. It's a huge way to build the fabric of a community and to create a cohesive society.
