Tonight @RegionWaterloo will vote to shut (or protect?) five regional children’s centres. A thread on this.... @Redman4Region @EClarkeYW @tomjgalloway14 @Michaelharrispc @DaveJaworsky @HellieJow @karlkiefer52 @Kathryn_McGarry @Sandy_Shantz @berryonline #Cdnchildcare #childcare
But wait! Didn’t we already do this? Yes, 5 years ago, Council considered closing the centres on the advice of big-business consultant KPMG. But when they heard from the community & independent researchers about the value of these centres, 15 of 16 councillors voted to keep them. 
Why are we back here now? Is childcare in Waterloo Region suddenly more accessible? Has demand dropped? Um. No. *Heck no.* And it’s a problem across Canada.
