Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre says his party will bring in more flexibility when it comes to finding child care spaces, but won’t directly say if the current $10-a-day program will be maintained.

Poilievre was recently in the province on a two-day tour that included stops in Lewisporte, Gander, New-Wes-Valley, and a tour of the Shield Group in Mount Pearl.

When asked about whether a Conservative Government would maintain that program, he asks where such spaces exist because he can’t find anyone who has one.

Poilievre says under the current government child care is harder to find and it costs more than ever.

He says they will provide flexibility for provincial governments and parents to “find child care that works for them, at an affordable price.”

“We don’t have $10-a-day. It doesn’t exist right now.” He says Conservatives will ensure more affordable options and spaces, and give the provinces flexibility to find what works for them.
