News for January 2020
DAYDREAMS ELCC LTD.
We continue to advocate for affordable quality Child Care and Early Learning.
News about 22 ELCC Centers; they were the 1st round of affordable high quality centers at $25 a day, it was announced January 16th they would have funding extended to June 2020 from original date of March 2020 while Mr Kenny and his team decide what is next.
Our Daydreams ELCC is in the 2nd round of 100 centers which was funded entirely by the Federal Government and our contract is due to expire in March 2021. Mr Trudeau during and after this past election has again re-committed to expanding affordable childcare across Canada and also including spaces in OSC programs under the funding.
We are all waiting to hear what that looks like and how Mr Kenny and UCP will follow through for Alberta.
We sent an invitation to visit to the Honorable Rebecca Shulz and Ms Rakhi Pancholi MLA in late August 2019 and only Ms Rakhi Pancholi came out and heard our concerns. To date no response from Honorable Rebecca Shulz. We will be asking to speak to our local MLA's in the Federal and Provincial Legislature so we can stay informed on the process.
We will be on the radio in February discussing this issue.
