EXCERPTS
Given recent developments in Ottawa and the change in
Liberal leadership, this is a crucial time to revitalize efforts for a national daycare strategy (Canada Ties For Last Among Developed Countries In Early-Childhood Care - Dec. 11).
The evidence of the economic and social benefits of providing regulated early-childhood care has been available to us for some time.
Why is it that a country like ours that leads by example in terms of universal health care lags so egregiously behind in the area of a national daycare strategy?
...
Canada must aspire to something nobler than last place when it comes to the care of our children.
