"Protecting child care means making it more affordable and accessible for parents.Your government will develop a modern child care system and funding model that will enable and support the child care sector to grow in line with demand from Manitoba families, provide greater equity in the type of support give to families, and offer choices and flexibility that reflects the needs and challenges today’s parents face."
