NEW: Child care work is one of the most underpaid and undervalued forms of labour in our society. Why is the labour force that performs the complex, demanding and indispensable work of caring for our children persistently undercut? @ChildCareON @AECEO canadiandimension.com/articles/view/…
Closure at local YMCA shouldn't jeopardize #cdnchildcare for hundreds of families/children. As an essential service, should be a public responsibility to ensure that these are fully maintained bit.ly/3QzcFdB @Child_Care_Now @ChildCareON

The YMCA is committed to helping children, youth and families grow and shine. Commitments in #Budget2024 are essential steps to building complete communities and we look forward to learning more and to working with the federal government to ignite the spark in everyone. #cdnpoli

@MayorOliviaChow Good to see that. Will a #cdnchildcare centre be part of the "much more"? Public space, public childcare @MayorOliviaChow @ChildCareON
@_MFriendly @uOttawa @OttawaCCN @recteurUOpres @ChildCareON This is a wonderful child care centre. I worked there throughout my undergrad. Very backward thinking to close child care spaces, From one of your alumnae.
If @uOttawa doesn't find a home for its childcare centre, will be one of very few CDN universities that fails to support its students/faculty/staff. Would do them such a disservice, as quality non-profit #cdnchildcare is in such short supply @OttawaCCN @recteurUOpres @ChildCareON

The federal plan is bringing $10-a-day child care to families all across the country. But in Ontario, you could be forgiven for wondering when $10-a-day will arrive for your kid, and when you'll find a space. @CarolynFerns with @ChildCareON digs in. thegrindmag.ca/opinion-ontari…

The city of Ottawa is collecting data to support the childcare plan for the next five years. Take the survey here: engage.ottawa.ca/childcarestrat… This survey is incredibly important for the Indigenous community to take part in, as our voices need to be heard and supported.

Yesterday, @BeckyDruhan, Minister of @nseducation, asked @JennaSudds, Minister of Families, Children, and Social Development, to allow @nsgov to provide public funding to private, for-profit child care centres. #nspoli #cdnpoli #cdnchildcare
I'm sure everybody forgot about this but I did not and we're revisiting this soon too, 3 years later:
This image, accompanying a prominent article, has been bothering me. The feeling that middle and upper-middle class women would literally step on low-income child care providers in order to further their own careers has been amplified during the pandemic. 1/2

Siren song of capitalism: ‘one day, you could also be rich’. Reality of life: it is far more likely that one day you would benefit from things like good public health care, good public schools, and good supports & safety nets to help one through life’s various stages and trials.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing many average people - who would likely never be subject to them, and who benefit from the programs funded by them - to oppose taxes on extreme wealth and gains.
A tax that has implications for 0.13% of the wealthiest population and yet the Globe and Mail is up in arms. pressprogress.ca/the-federal-go…
The YMCA is committed to helping children, youth and families grow and shine. Commitments in #Budget2024 are essential steps to building complete communities and we look forward to learning more and to working with the federal government to ignite the spark in everyone. #cdnpoli

@CA_prosperity @JennaSudds @JustinTrudeau @cafreeland This is a great table. Important to mention that the #childcare space commitments in column 4 will not be realized without competitive compensation for early childhood educators, including pensions & benefits - Budget 2024 leaves this up to provinces + territories #cdnchildcare
