The Canadian federal government’s pre-budget charm offensive is back for a second straight day — this time aimed at parents and child care providers. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said the government plans to provide more than $1 billion in low-cost loans, grants and student loan forgiveness to expand child care across Canada.

This announcement comes ahead of the upcoming federal budget tabling, which is set to take place April 16.

Trudeau made the announcement in Surrey, B.C., part of the Liberal government’s effort to win back support among younger voters and middle-class families.

He says an additional $60 million will be set aside for non-repayable grants for eligible child care centres to build new spaces or renovate.
