Episode Details

Manitoba’s Education Minister Tracy Schmidt announced major strides in child care access, with over 1,000 new licensed spots opened since last year—and more on the way. Backed by federal funding, the province is tackling affordability and demand, helping parents like one mom who secured spots for her twins to return to work. A new educator wage grid is boosting retention, while 10,000+ spaces for kids under six and nearly 2,700 for school-aged children are either open or coming soon. Construction kicks off soon on a 56-space preschool at The Forks, expanding options downtown.
