Yes, this can be done! Families across Canada are desperate to find high-quality, affordable child care in centres or homes in order to go to work. This is an economic development strategy as well as an equity strategy. #UniversalChildCare #womenwork #its2019 @ChildCareON

Affordable, accessible child care is one of the biggest factors in reducing the gender wage gap – it's just the right thing to do for families. The Liberals have been promising child care for 26 years. We're actually going to get it done with universal child care. #elxn43

A year later, former Sears employees – like my mother – face an uncertain future. (Changes to the labour are needed) theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…

A year later, former Sears employees – like my mother – face an uncertain future

What Sears executives and shareholders have done to their employees is outright exploitation.
