Budget 2021: A Canada-wide early learning and child care plan[edit]
The 2021 federal budget tabled by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland on April 19 included approximately CA$30 billion over 5 years for a "Canada-wide early learning and child care plan". The funds will "offset the cost of early learning and child care services" towards the creation a national child-care system. The early learning and child care plan introduced in the budget, builds on the bilateral agreements begun as part of the Multilateral Early Learning and Child Care Framework introduced on June 12, 2017. The federal government and 13 provinces and territories will negotiate individual bilateral agreements.

Budget 2022
The Coivd-19 pandemic has played a big part in not only the country but specifically their child care system. With a rapid disease going around, child care workers or truly any workers at all was scarce. Children themselves started to experience mental health problems due to the isolation of being at home with a parent who is more than likely stressed themself. The importance of kids being able to be kids and interact with people outside of the home is important. Canada's Child Care program in 2022 is between falling and being stable. With childcare becoming more accessible, it builds the economy. Women will be able to work while they have a place to send their child to learn and also be watched over. In a 2021 budget, the government made an appalling investment of $30 billion for early learning and child care services within the country. Throughout the year, government was able to get all 13 provinces and territories to align with their childcare system and budget. Thus, by 2022 government was able to lower child care services for citizens by 50% and averaging $10 a day for children to catered to while their parent works in years 2025-26. Many government officials raised to idea of infrastructure funding for this system. Officials have even went as far as offering classes for individuals to be child care workers at no charge to insure there are people in this field. However, this funding would be challenging for non-profit organizations along with public providers making real estate more expensive and material that goes within these buildings. "Eligible families can now receive up to up to $5,903 per child aged six through 17 and up to $6,997 per child under the age of six for the July 2022 to June 2023 benefit year".

Proposal
I have included five new resources to the bibliography in which I will use in my sandbox article. I think I am going to add a new article for "2022" following the "2021" article to summarize My first and third article "A Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care Plan" will be used for me to further explain the governments powers. My second source is about low income families and how they contribute to the childcare plan. I will use that source to comment more on low-income families which the article talks about but it could be touched on more. My fourth and fifth source is pertaining to 2022 and the child care system currently which is what my entire draft will mainly be about. I will use all these articles/references to write an additional section about 2022's childcare system in place in Canada.
