So great to be joined by amazing families and educators today at Queen's Park as part of the Canada-Wide Day of Action for Child Care! You can still take part by signing @Child_Care_Now's Open Letter: https://t.co/RL6hJDkm0I

[Child Care Now @Child_Care_Now]

Hundreds of thousands of Canadian families can’t find child care when they need it.

That’s why on Nov. 30, advocates are holding a National Day of Action on Child Care & Early Learning.
