“Parents in 5 jurisdictions probably won’t be at $10 a day — so there will be a lot of people in those provinces paying more than $10 a day, Ontario being one of them,” along with New Brunswick, Alberta, BC and Nova Scotia, said @DavidMacCdn @ccpa #cdnpoli

“They are, in fact, the most expensive cities in the country when it comes to infant care or preschool-aged care,” said @DavidMacCdn , a @ccpa senior economist. “So there’s a lot of room to improve in those cities.” #cdnpoli

À moins d'un an de l'échéance fixée par Ottawa, seulement 6 provinces et territoires – dont le Québec – ont atteint l'objectif de frais de garde d'enfants à 10 $ par jour, selon un rapport du @ccpa publié mercredi.

"It's almost certain that even after the 2026 deadline passes, many parents in five provinces will be paying more than $10 a day for child care," said @DavidMacCdn, an economist with @ccpa. #cdnpoli

.@ccpa Senior Economist @DavidMacCdn said even though fees have dropped significantly everywhere, the federal government is unlikely to meet its self-imposed [2026] deadline [for $10 a day for child care] #cdnpoli.

ICYMI @ccpa report finds benefits of eliminating internal trade barriers is overrated. @MarcLeeYVR #cdnpoli #cdnecon

ICYMI: Cost of internal trade barriers vastly overstated: .@MarcLeeYVR, Senior Economist with @ccpa, joins BNN Bloomberg to discuss the impact of interprovincial trade barriers. #cdnecon #cdnpoli

“For cuts this deep, it would require across-the-board job losses and major service reductions.” This austerity, he writes, would rival Chrétien’s 1995 effort “as the most extreme budget slashing in Canadian history,” said @DavidMacCdn. @ccpa #cdnpoli

By removing interprovincial trade barriers, the federal government may be paving the way for a “race to the bottom” that weakens public and environmental protections. @ccpa @MarcLeeYVR #cdnpoli #cdnecon

Le gouvernement fédéral et les premiers ministres du Canada exagèrent largement les avantages de l'élimination des barrières commerciales intérieures, affirme le @ccpa dans un nouveau rapport.

A new @ccpa report is dismissing moves by the federal government and Canada’s premiers to break down internal trade barriers as little more than “political theatre.” #cdnpoli #cdnecon

“Now [the scale of these government spending cuts is] reaching into grants, contributions, transfers to other levels of government, to non-profits,” @DavidMacCdn said. “There’s just a lot more on the table now.” @ccpa #cdnpoli #cdnecon

“The point here is that these are massive cuts, and they would definitely be on par with some of the largest cuts we’ve seen in a generation,” said @DavidMacCdn. @ccpa #cdnpoli #cdnecon

"A @ccpa report [points to] to a 24% cut in government spending. It suggested Carney’s election promises could bring about the “worst cuts in modern history” to the federal public service." #cdnpoli #canlab

"This is one campaign promise the Liberals should break. Cuts of this size. are clearly not feasible. It. would be the most extreme budget-slashing in Canadian history. That will inevitably diminish the quality of public services." @DavidMacCdn #cdnpoli

"The Canadian population is aging, including those who rent. Ventullo’s [eviction] story is dramatic, but it’s not an isolated case. And those cases will become more common as long as our laws protect profit in housing." @ricardo_tranjan @ccpa #onpoli

“If you’re charging more interest than you’re paying yourself, you’re keeping the change,” said @ricardo_tranjan “It’s is a pretty bad formula that benefits landlords instead of tenants.” #onpoli #cdnpoli
