Should the federal government subsidize universal child care?

Yes, but not for high income families. Middle class should still be subsidized in addition to low income

Their federal government should subsidize child care for families that meet a mindful and appropriate guideline for need, which isn’t always limited to low income families. Families with more than three children should not qualify for subsidized child care, unless the family is blended or the third pregnancy resulted in multiples that are not the product of IVF. Private day care should continue to be available to families who choose it.

Should be a provincial responsibility

Yes but I also think there needs to be better sex education in schools. This should also depend on your income

No. This should be a line item in the federal transfer payments, with Provinces required to meet or exceed minimum standards with a limit for the maximum cost to parents. Accommodation for cross-provincial needs of border towns (wet Que - East Ont, for example) will be required.

this is a short term solution to a long term problem. Because of how the economy is set up we live in a society were people cannot take care of their family. This is antinatalism at its finest

Yes, but mainly for low-income families

Yes but only for children under school age

increase wages so childcare is more accessible or people have the option to have 1 parent stay home and 1 work without financial strain

yes but only if they offer the choice for one parent to stay home with extended maternity/paternity benefits rather then put their child in daycare

Yes, but only for people who cannot afford it

No, people should pay for their own children

How will this affect the workers?

Yes but only for the parents who are actually going to work

Yes up to 2 kids

This encourages women in the work force

Yes, but based on need

Yes, but not for-profit childcare

Free universal child care

Yes but based on income

They can partially subsidize it, but not so that it is so low as $7 a day like in Quebec. Such a low rate is not sustainable.

No but it should make it more feasible for one parent to be able to stay home. There should be greater tax benefits for single income families.

yes, but in a more than a 10 dollar a day capacity.

No, encourage stay-at-home parenting (from a proud housewife that got refuse to remove it child From school because Quebec want to cash in more with their broken brainwashing's school system )

If a single parent can earn enough as a breadwinner (minimum wage) for the family then child care becomes a choice not a requirement, therefore not requiring subsidization.

I dont understand the question

No. The current child care benefit allows parents to make their own choices on how they want to use their benefits.

Yes, subsidize everything, some people can't afford it themselves.

Into a monitored fund insuring proper use of the money, with check ups a couple times a year to insure the child has good conditions. Not being overly strict with taking children away.

Yes, for all kids

Yes, and provide them with free food and milk in schools.

No, it should subsidize the creation of affordable childcare spaces to reduce the cost.

No. Parents decided to have a child, therefore it is their responsibility.

I think it should be subsidized up to 150k in earnings between families

No, and abolish universal child care and instead bring the insurance industry back and cause profiteering with companies to do the best for patients

Provinces choose

Yes, but through rate caps and tax deductions for parents. This will also more options and the free market will dictate which businesses receive clients. Standards will be forced to increase at all centres.

Only for those who need it

no this would cost more in taxes and upfront costs

Yes, but grown the economy to afford it

Yes, but we can’t afford it at this moment

No, reduce red tape for the community to provide its own cheap child care

Encourage stay at home parenting by establishing income splitting for parents until the youngest child goes to school fulltime.

Yes, but only for low income working parent/s or guardian.

yes when canada can afford it.

Do a calculation as to how much Canadian taxpayers are over-taxed, return that money to Canadian tax payers and then lower income tax by close to that percentage (eg Current tax = 42% Balanced budget tax requirement 18% ergo reduce income tax by approx 24% for all tax payers). In this way more Canadians will be able to afford single family incomes and or afford to take time off of work to raise their own children.

Yes, but only once we can safely afford it
