$15.00 per day daycare?

For the moment, that's what Mulcair is saying...a million. I would imagine, that if it takes hold, the idea would be for it to grow and create spaces for all the children. Of course, once the spaces are filled (initially), parents left behind will come to us. I also think that some will come to us by choice as well, not wanting their children in institutional care. That being said, competition for clients, I would think, will be quite ardent. It will change the way we advertise, run our businesses, etc.

Babydom, all this information is on FB on the CICPO page and Canadian Home Daycares United page. There are discussions surrounding this regularly. I would suggest it might be good for anyone who wishes to be kept apprised of current and potential changes to have a wander through them and read up. There are many, many changes occurring right now. It is highly recommended that each provider inform themselves about the new childcare climate as well as the potential one following the Federal election in October. We are trying to educate as much as we can, but it can be difficult reaching everyone. In addition, it would be quite beneficial to have more providers step forward to help with future CICPO endeavors. We've made tremendous strides, but there's still work to be done.
