Ontario child-care fees could rise without new federal funding: provincial minister

  • Ontario Education Minister Paul Calandra warns that child-care fees could rise without new federal funding for the $10-a-day program, which is currently capped at $22 a day.
  • The current funding structure could leave Ontario $10 billion short over five years, according to provincial officials.
  • Calandra has sent a letter to parents stating that fees could increase after March 31, 2026, when the current deal expires.
  • Neither the federal Liberals nor Conservatives have promised increased funding, though Liberal Leader Mark Carney emphasizes the importance of preserving the child-care program.
