I think Quebec is spending twice as much for a percentage of the spaces that the Liberals would need to create.

I think that's a perfect example of how any new program with the name 'care' at the end of it is a nonsensical moneypit from a fiscal perspective. In Quebec's case it isn't as hard a sell becasuse ultimately they aren't paying for it.
