  • Re: Bill C-35 
Madam Speaker, my colleague is always very thoughtful, and I appreciate learning from her. She did make a comment that I would like to correct on the record. I think it says it best about the difference between prioritizing and eliminating. I am going to read her a comment that Ms. Maggie Moser, director of the board of directors of the Ontario Association of Independent Childcare Centres, made at committee. She said: Lower-income families were excluded from obtaining access to the CWELCC child care spots. Families who could already afford the fees of their centre were the ones who benefited from the rebates and discounts, while the rest were left behind on a long wait-list. Does she recognize that the way the bill is currently written is actually hurting lower-income families?
