Maybe I'm just old fashioned and outdated but wouldnt the world be a better place if we spent that money helping families have one parent at home with the kids? FWIW I'm not against both parents working at all if that's their choice just think there are lots that do because they have no choice.

I agree. Besides the nearest “daycare” is 50 km from here. Not much of a benefit to us folk out in da’ boonies.

But then how do we start filling their impressionable young minds with propaganda early enough that they all turn out brainwashed just like Chuck?

That is increasingly harder to do with age.

The provincial and federal money is going to help families that allows both spouses and single parent families to participate in education opportunities and good jobs.

Increasing parents participation in the work force is good for the economy. A shortage of affordable daycare is a big issue for young families, especially single parents.

Its also an investment in early childhood learning which pays big dividends down the road.

Most conservatives know this, but apparently not on Agrisilly.

Social conservatives like to criticize investing in children and families because they have some old fashioned and outdated ideas about how to raise and educate kids.

Its not the 1950s and Leave it to Beaver is not the current model of family life some of you want to return to.

But keep on dividing and dragging the Conservatives down with your outdated socially conservative "family values".

So daycare is affordable if government pays for it even if it actualy is costing many time more than currently?

Government money is not a real cost as it is just borrowed and they can print all they want.
Doesn't cost anybody anything?

That’s how leftards think

Its time people learn to look after themselves and not rely on taxpayers to help them out. If you cant afford to have kids maybe you shouldnt have them. Too many make a career out of having kids and cashing govt cheques.

Sadly the people that like government day care and say....

If you can't afford to take care of your cattle don't have them.


Bit of a standoff...

Not to be argumentative...just facts when you read comments by average Canadians about the cow guys payment.

Agree. Just remember the % of kids with one parent going up all the time.

OhTools suggestion to give families the money directly might swing a few votes his way. Focusing the help to low income families more, is a good idea, but that sounds like socialism!

But the early childhood education and socialization that comes from good quality day cares and early learning programs can't always be delivered in the home.

So if you give the money directly to low income families, will it really improve the outcomes for the family and especially the children? Or is it just going to be used to help them survive?

Moe and Pallister signed on to the Trudeau program, so they must have thought it was okay.

Definition of Socialization:
organization of an industry or company according to the principles of socialism.
"planned economic growth was accompanied by the socialization of agriculture"

As I was saying above about indoctrinating kids to be good socialists being difficult to do in their own homes.
Then Chuck puts it into words, thank you.

Relying on daycare to raise ones children is so sad. When one has children there are sacrifices to be made.

Parents need to raise their own kids again. If possible.

Wife ran a small day care on farm.Kids that first came as scared of everyone ended up being much better socially after being here a year or 2 before going into kindergarden.With smaller families some kids need to get out with other kids at a young age. .
