Budget message on child care: let parents eat cake

The federal budget is a slap in the face to the millions of Canadian families desperately seeking child care, says CodeBlue for Child Care.

"The Harper government is cutting $1.2 billion in federal funding forchild care and instead is handing over only $250 million to the provinces andterritories to create spaces," says Morna Ballantyne, Code Blue Coordinator."

The Conservatives have taken away any hope and opportunity for creating the system of early learning and child care that Canadians say they want."
