Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Canada. Health and Welfare Canada. Child Care Programs Division : Following special amendments to the welfare services provisions of the Canada Assistance Plan (CAP) legislation in 1972, the federal government became more involved in the area of day care. Under CAP, the federal government could share with provinces and municipalities the costs of salaries, staff training and research for day care services to low-income families. In December 1987, the federal government announced a seven year National Strategy on Child Care which included tax measures to increase the affordability of child care and contribute to parents' child care costs, a Canada Child Care Act to allow for cost shared provincial/territorial child care programs, and a Child Care Initiatives Fund (CCIF) to support demonstration projects and applied research on child care. The Child Care Programs Division was created to administer the CCIF and negotiate the new Act; the latter (Bill C-144) died on the order paper when Parliament was dissolved for the November 1988 federal election. The Division became part of Human Resources Development Canada in 1993.
