We feel that all the representations we have made over the past few years on early childhood education have been exceptional with regard to progress.
In our opinion, early childhood not only marks the starting point for language learning, but also the starting point for a child's learning and development. The Franco-Saskatchewanian community has invested heavily in schools, in the Franco-Saskatchewanian parent association and workers to ensure the integration of all early childhood services.
Clearly, the federal government's decision to abolish the federal-provincial childcare agreement has had a significant impact. I am the Director of the Franco-Saskatchewanian Parent Association and I am involved in the network. As parents belonging to the association, we feel that it is important for parents to be involved in their children's education.
