Again, I think we really need to be looking at the Canada social transfer, the CST. There's a lot of money that gets invested into that, but it's been capped. It's been capped for a very long time. The money that's transferred to provinces and territories through the CST is a block transfer that the provinces and territories are able to spend whichever way they like for child care, education and social and disability assistance programs. We want those caps lifted. We need increased investment into those programs and we need accountability mechanisms to ensure that anything funded through the Canada social transfer is advancing our human rights obligations.
Actually, right now, the United Nations is today questioning the Government of Canada on its commitments to the Convention on the Rights of the Child. It's timely that we're having this conversation. I think the Canada social transfer, the income transfer to individuals, is one crucial piece.
We still need available and accessible services, and you mentioned child care. Those services should be tailored to meeting the needs of families who are in the lowest income brackets. When we design services that way, we will bring everybody along.
