In 2018 the BC government committed to universal $10aDay child care. 7 years into its 10-year plan, BC is not close to delivering on its promise.
Because of the $10aDay Campaign, our province started building a universal child care system.
But now, progress in BC has stalled.

The community's $10aDay Plan calls for three key actions, all within a system that upholds Indigenous rights and advances reconciliation:
Affordable Fees
More Licensed Spaces
Better ECE Compensation
In 2018 the BC government started to make progress on all three.
But now progress has stalled and commitments are not being upheld.
Thanks to the $10aDay campaign, BC now has
15,246
$10aDay child care spaces. Families not yet in $10aDay programs are saving up to $900/month, per child.
But this is not enough progress.
The BC government is not delivering on its child care commitments to children, families, communities or the economy.
Fees for many families are still too high, child care expansion isn’t well-planned or happening fast enough, and educator wages are still too low.
