  1. At 1:00 PM ET, join a Canada-wide bilingual on-line event [4] about what is at stake for early learning and child care in the 2021 federal election. Register [4] now and then share the information with others.
  2. Post your voter pledge [5] on social media. Add the hashtags: #Elxn44, #CdnChildCare, #CdnPoli, #VoteChildCare4ALL
  3. Sign the petition [6] to show all parties how many of us want a publicly funded, universal, inclusive and accessible system of child care.

Local actions

  • In addition, we encourage child care advocates to take action for early learning and child care in their communities by;
  • Tie balloons (purple or green) to your porch or balcony
  • Print off a DIY lawn sign, think about making this a group colouring activity
  • Post a sign on your window or mailbox to show you will vote child care for all
  • Ask your local candidate to take the Candidate Pledge
  • Write an OpEd or Letter to the Editor in advance and seek to get it published on September 14, 2021
