I don't blame the NDP for not rolling out subsidized daycare in their first year.  

Can we even afford to provide cheap daycare, based on reported income, when increasingly so many in metro Vancouver are choosing not to report money for taxation purposes?

Problems abound in Quebec.  

Per a recent G+M report:  "Quebec's public daycares are plagued by long waiting lists. Typically, well-off parents have learned how to game the system to snag limited spots, often to the detriment of less well-connected low-income families."

Only 35% of kids are looked after in the coveted  public system - the rest utilize the same  family setting daycares that are so prevalent here in BC.

The study concludes that the daycare system in Quebec  is simply too expensive for what it delivers.

The NDP needs to get this right, or this will be the fast ferry that sinks the NDP's chance of a second term.
