Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you, Minister, for coming to the committee today.
In your opening comments you talked about the imbalance and inequality between different people groups and especially that it has been exasperated now during COVID between genders. Your $30-billion early learning and national child day care program, which will provide subsidized government day care for $10 per child per day, is going to be used by some women in my riding and across Canada, and others will make the choice of not using that.
How does your budget address the imbalance and inequality that will create between women?
