Federal Government Announces Child-Care Infrastructure Funding to Build More Spaces
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced $625 million in funding over four years to support the development of child-care infrastructure in provinces and territories. The funding aims to assist providers in renovating, retrofitting, and constructing not-for-profit and public child-care facilities, aligning with the government’s commitment to a national child-care program with affordable fees. The initiative addresses concerns about the lack of available spaces to meet the increasing demand for subsidized child care.
