Mr. Speaker, we are very much committed to child care. We have created over 40,000 affordable child care spaces since 2015. We are still committed to ensuring that there are an additional 250,000 before and after school child care spaces. We are on track to continue to invest $7.5 billion in child care over the next number of years. We have reached agreements with provinces and territories.
In addition to that, and to answer directly my colleague's question, we have invested over $2 billion in child care this year alone, making sure that provinces and territories and the child care sector are resilient and emerge stronger after the COVID-19 pandemic.
