Categories:

November 2021 Justin Trudeau seems desperate for a legacy, any legacy, and right now he seems to be pinning it on a nationwide $10 per day daycare. Call me cynical, but I know Canadian taxpayers are going to end up with the short-end on this one, and I’m not just talking about the heavy tax …
