NEW: Ontario releases list of where new $10-a-day child-care spaces will be.
The new spaces will be part of the Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care system, meaning the cost to parents who enroll their children in these centres will be reduced to about $10 a day by September 2026.
The centres will be a mix of not-for-profit and for-profit centres, which the province says will provide families with "choice and flexibility." There has been an increase in demand for child-care spaces in Ontario as a result of the CWELCC, which the financial accountability officer warned could leave the province shortAccording to the report, families of about 227,146 children will be left unable to access $10-a-day child care by 2026.The government said Monday it is launching a $213 million grant program for operators who create child-care centres in communities most in need.
