EXCERPTS

Re: "Child care plan languishes," Editorial, April 22.

The government created the ministerial advisory committee on child care spaces. We received, reviewed and released the report.

Our plan was developed after we consulted the committee, the provinces and territories, stakeholders, parents and professional child care providers.

...

The government will provide nearly $5.6 billion this year in support of early learning and child care through transfers, direct spending and tax measures. Canadians voted for choice in child care. We are delivering.

Monte Solberg, Minister of Human Resources and Social Development Canada.
