Today in Ottawa, child care advocates raised serious concerns about possible cuts to Canada’s $10-a-day system. Workers can’t work without child care. We must protect it, expand it and invest in it. #ChildCareNow #cdnpoli Watch the press conference: cpac.ca/headline-politics/ep…

What a chaotic day! My daughter’s daycare is closed due to college strike. I’m proud of her educators who are fighting for the future of colleges & services they provide. Calling on @fordnation to fund colleges is part of broader need to fund child care & all public services!
More than 10,000 full-time college support staff are ON STRIKE as of 12:01 a.m. This is not just a fight for a contract – it’s about the future of student support. We’re fighting because we know our students need us. Join a picket line near you 🫵 opseupicketfinder.org
