EXCERPTS

Mayor David Miller's message to Stephen Harper eloquently states the concerns shared by many families we work with and other children's advocates.

…

The federal-provincial child-care agreements were long-fought, groundbreaking steps toward an accessible, high-quality child-care system that serves all families, not just middle- and high-income earners.

…

As Miller has so thoughtfully asserted, it would be a great disservice to families and communities if these agreements were tossed aside.
