Barley Risotto and Kimchi: A Culinary Crossroads| SaltWire #food #cookingshorts #kimchiOTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau blamed conservative premiers for any shortfalls in his child-care program, accusing the provincial governments of not moving fast enough to build spaces.
The Trudeau Liberals launched the child-care program in 2021 with $27 billion aimed at getting provinces to offer child care for an average fee of $10 a day. Since the program was launched, eight out of 10 provinces have reached the $10-a-day average, but there are growing waitlists, and many parents face a lack of spaces, while some providers have said they can not afford to operate with the funding they provided.
On Thursday he continued that theme, arguing the child-care plan was about providing a leg-up to young families struggling with other affordability issues.
