I wouldn't be opposed to a rolling subsidy at all. However, the federal Conservatives felt that if one Canadian parent should get the subsidy, then all Canadian parents should get the same. I guess the woman in the article feels the same way. If we are going to share the burden of childing raising across society, it should be shared equally.
