Except that there aren't enough subsidized placements so lots of parents can't use the system.

Like I said, it's not universal yet but it's still been huge for tens of thousands of parents.

Edit: Sorry, that was brusque. I just think starting a transformative national daycare program that looks solid however nascent, is pretty impressive. Between a pandemic, record inflation, land war in europe AND starting a transformative new dental health program, I personally am okay with solid beginnings for now. In ten years, if these programs hold and expand properly, I might find myself impressed with Trudeau's legacy.
