Minister of Families, Children and Social Development House of Commons Ottawa, ON K1A 0A6 [email protected] The Honourable Todd Smith Minister of Children, Community and Social Services 7th Floor, 438 University Ave. Toronto, ON M5G 2K8 [email protected] Dear Ministers: I am writing to you on behalf of the City of London to communicate our support for the creation of a National Child Care Framework. I am calling on the Governments of Canada and Ontario to work in partnership to work expediently to create a Framework in light of the essential role affordable, accessible, inclusive and high quality child care will play as part of our national, regional and local community recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Our community welcomed the Government of Canada’s commitment to build a multi-year plan toward a Canada-wide child care system from coast to coast to coast. We know this will require strong partnerships between all orders of government as well as the community to implement effectively. I look forward to additional details in the Government of Canada’s upcoming Budget 2021. 1 The current COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the important role child care plays for Canadian families. A robust child care system will allow parents to return to work with certainty, precisely when we need it the most. By investing in child care, we are investing in our economic recovery. Numerous economic analyses point out that spending in the child care system can bring powerful economic returns on investment which can generate growth and prosperity during this crucial time.
