  • Re: Bill C-35 
Mr. Speaker, I come from a rural area and hear from young moms and other moms all the time. We do not have child care spots available; that is just the reality in our rural areas. Privatized child care spots are all that can be found, if people can find them in home day care. We do not have enough workers. There are not enough people going through programs in colleges to support the day cares that we do have. We cannot get after-school or before-school child care for hours for people who work shift work. What would the member like to say to those moms in rural areas who just cannot find child care, when this bill would actually do nothing to help them find child care?
