Canada

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Families Minister Jenna Sudds said Monday some Ontario daycare centres have pulled out of the federal government's national early learning and child care program because the province hasn't stepped up with enough cash.

Asked about some daycares either rejecting or bailing out of the Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care (CWELCC) program, Sudds said it's a "consequence, unfortunately, of a delay with respect to the province of Ontario coming forward with a sustainable and long-term funding formula for providers."

Sudds made the comments at a stop in St. Thomas, Ont., where Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced $200 million in funding to create more child care spaces in a province where they're in short supply.

Ola's monthly debt is growing "by a significant amount" and it had to pull out of the $10-a-day program and increase rates to match inflation or risk shutting down, the operator wrote in an email to parents obtained by the Canadian Press.

Operators have said the combination of a cap on fees parents pay and insufficient government rebates has some daycare centres teetering on the edge of insolvency — or threatening to leave Ottawa's child care program behind.

Poilievre's spokesperson pointed to recent Statistics Canada data that shows families are reporting it's more difficult to find a child care spot now than it was five years ago.
