"The daycare's director said she's currently serving 43 children but the building has space for 88. Her struggle is finding and retaining staff."
👉Wage grid, benefits & pension would help. It's happening in other provinces. Catch up Ontario!

@aparna_tarc Congratulations Mario! Can't wait to read this!

Agree with @lprospero2. Of course delayed implementation of the wage floor puts it out of date. Gap between community ECEs and those part of public education sector has grown now that Ford’s Bill 124 was rightfully declared illegal

If you've seen media coverage of Fraser Institute's most recent critique of the Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care program, read this excellent evidence-based rebuttal by @gordcleveland https://t.co/C3KZaibs3E

I'm completely with PMJT on this - well put and definitely a garbage decision.

Great op-ed by @loganwood.

While federal funding has increased, provincial funding to child-care is lower in 2024 than it was in 2018.

Is Ontario deliberately setting up the CWELCC agreement to fail? When will parents get the child care they deserve?

If you really want to undestand the successes and challenges of the $10-a-day rollout, listen to the wisdom of @childcarecanada's @_MFriendly on @FrontBurnerCBC

Danielle Smith took to X to blast feds for messing up the $10aday #chdnchildcare program but her own minister says "This has actually been one of the greatest success stories of collaboration between the provincial government and the federal government."

"The rally was part of the Canada-wide Day of Action for Child Care. Advocates say hundreds of thousands of families are stuck on waitlists for affordable child care – a crisis being driven by the workforce shortage." #DotsForSpots #WorthMore

While child care centres are forced shut their doors, we're still waiting for @sflecce to release a child care workforce strategy. It needs to include a real boost to wages if we want to solve child care access crisis. #WorthMore

[Ontario Coalition for Better Child Care @ChildCareON]

To solve the child care workforce shortage, ON should immediately implement a province-wide publicly funded salary scale
- at least $30-$40/hour for RECEs.
- at least $25/hour for non-RECE staff.
- Annual increases and steps to reward years of service.
- Benefit and pension plans

Early childhood educators are scandalously underpaid almost everywhere in Canada. https://t.co/QDXW3gvItp
