I said that the federal funding has led to improvements in early childhood care and learning, but there is still time left to decide whether all the responsibilities have been met.
The federal funding has helped reduce the cost of child care. Five provinces and three territories are already at $10 a day, which is ahead of the deadline of 2026. Additional spots have been created, but there's still a lot of work left to be done there. It was impossible for me to evaluate other areas, whether it came to accessibility or the quality of child care.
While the funding has helped improve the situation, there's still room for improvement.
