Asylum seekers in Quebec have taken to the courts in hopes that their children can access spots in subsidized daycares.
Their access to affordable childcare had been withdrawn by the Liberal government in April 2018 and the class-action lawsuit alleges that this discriminates against women who want to seek work as they wait for their refugee status.
The children of asylum seekers were allowed up to one year in subsidized daycare but a directive from Luc Fortin — the minister of families at the time — modified the interpretation of that policy, barring access to the service.
The law firm representing the women, alongside refugee rights organizations and a group of 130 health professionals made presentations to new Families Minister Mathieu Lacombe, who said he was open to changing the policy. He cautioned that the province is negotiating with the federal government to receive additional funding to help with the influx of refugee claimants in 2017 and 2018 and that the issue of daycare spots may take time.
The plaintiffs replied that the decision to give access to childcare is exclusively within the province’s jurisdiction and that Quebec hasn’t waited on federal funding to provide healthcare, public school and other government services.
How can non-Canadians demand anything from Canada???
That’s the Turdo way. Thousands of CITIZENS are denied but refugees are deserving of ‘special’ consideration.
Our PM needs a good hard kick in the balls. I wish someone would do it. Maybe Trump will.
OH… wait.. I forgot. He has no balls.
Two words: The Charter.
Said our ever helpful RCMP: “In between carrying their luggage, we can do pick up and drop off!”
Why? If their kids grow up in the daycare system they will become westernized. Then they will have to kill them.
Once given the okay, they will then set up Sharia daycares for their kids. It’s all in the works already.
and the takers take… more !! True libs 🙂
It is not enough that these cock roaches were allowed into the country Are given free housing medical and dental
Now they want free or subsidized healthcare too
This Liberal immigration policy has done nothing but cost tax payers $ billions Put a strain on our already maxed out healthcare system and put more people out on to the streets
What ever happened to looking after our own 1 st ?
Diversity is not a strength No matter how many time the Liberal idiots repeat it
I visit a shelter in Scarborough often. One portion is refugges only . Most have brand new cars they can barely drive . They all wear high end clothes and have latest phones . Seen it all with my own natural eye
Good day Doc

Even in Edmonton They are moved into new condo’s All wearing new clothes and new cars or Mini vans when our homeless and veterans are living outside in the river valley using the food banks and having to panhandle just to survive
