Toronto Mayor John Tory sent letters to each of the 11 Progressive Conservative MPPs who represent ridings in his city, saying that child-care cuts will hurt families and strain Ontario’s labour market
Toronto Mayor John Tory is urging Ontario’s government to reverse what he calls “unilateral, retroactive” cuts to child-care funding, which he says will hurt families and strain the province’s labour market.
A memo from the government told operators that funding ended as of March 31, and any money that flowed to operators after that date would be “recovered.” “I will keep making the case and urging residents to tell their MPPs that these unilateral, retroactive cuts to child care will hurt families in the neighbourhoods they represent and threaten Toronto’s prosperity.”
