VANCOUVER British Columbia is well positioned for the widespread expansion of its goal of achieving child care for $10 a day thanks to federal commitments announced last week, a longtime advocate for the program says.
Sharon Gregson, B.C.’s spokeswoman for the $10aDay Child Care Campaign, said the legwork the province has done testing low-cost daycare models puts it in a better position than most other provinces, even if its own budget falls short of what’s needed.
