@jmanchak @TimAdamsFF Why certified teachers? Lots of kids head off to day care and in summer activity camps. So why not consider after in-school programming that introduces arts, music or sports camps. Coordinate with faculty at post second - practicum students supervised by professionals.

We found that the most diverse executive teams are 33% more likely to drive above-average profitability than other companies. It's just one more point of what we know to be true—everyone has a history and different perspective can add value.

We advocate for strong family policy. Policy that creates opportunity for mom’s, dad’s and kids delivered in an efficient way that controls costs and allows for choice and practical use. We will share the family policies as they release. Here’s the first, https://t.co/RX3H5zgWkQ

Wishing all families, in all forms the happiest of holidays on this day and which ever day you celebrate. We enjoy time of refelection, prayer, family, relaxation, love and fun. We think of those less fortunate and give where we can. To all a good night from #familiesthatwork

Have you seen our fiscally prudent proposal on childcare? We’re asking provincial parties to build common sense solutions for AB’s working parents. Ensure private childcare providers can offer before/after programs IN schools. https://t.co/KI4ofvw1KU

[Families that Work @famsthatwork]

Except Alberta, YMCA’s across Canada offer before/after school care in the schools. AB YMCA do not have before/aftercare like this due to provincial licensing issues. For preschool ages Calgary YMCA now offers $25/day care. For a total of $546/month. About half of AB’s marketrate
