Today at Queen's Park, Jessica Bell succinctly asked Stephen Lecce: "When is this government going to sign on to provide parents with $10/a day #cdnchildcare"? How about it, Doug Ford? It's happening across Canada - what about ON? #onpoli Ontario Coalition for Better Child Care Canadian Child Care Federation Child Care Now

We are 31 days away from Ontario losing a full year of federal child care funding: more than $1 Billion GONE. While Lecce & Ford play games, families are bearing outrageous costs & we are losing ECEs because of poor pay & working conditions. Get the deal done. #onpoli

We are proud to stand with OSBCU-CSCSO education workers, including ECEs, as they fight for decent work and fair wages. The right to collectively bargain and negotiate in good faith must be protected for all workers in Ontario. #39kIsNotEnough
