Wow. Someone besides me remembers that.
As much as the Liberals took a LOT of heat for that, it is true that there are some parents out there that would take any moneys supposed to be used for their children's benefit and waste it on their own needs. Obviously not all, not most, but some. And there has to be a way to ensure that it is going towards the childs needs.
The issue with giving "daycare money" to parents is that it HAS TO BE ENOUGH TO PAY FOR DAYCARE. The paltry sum parents are getting right now wouldn't play for 1 day per week in Toronto. Single moms STILL have no choice but to stay on welfare and stay home with the child.
