About this episode
In 2021, the federal government launched a national daycare plan that promised accessible and affordable daycare, the aim was reducing fees to $10 dollars a day. Five years in, we check in on two families in Regina and Winnipeg on how the plan is working for them. We also speak with Carolyn Ferns, Public Policy Coordinator for the Ontario Coalition For Better Child Care, and Kerry McCuaig, a Fellow in Early Childhood Policy at the University of Toronto, on what more needs to get done.
