Daycare, touche

This is looking to be the issue that is going to define the debate for the next session of Parliament. Yesterday, the new Finance Minister, Jim Flaherty, killed any chance that the Conservatives will honour the Liberal daycare plan. That this happens in the face of Bill Graham's line-in-the-sand statements of last week and demands from premiers that the Liberal plan or $omething $ort of $imilar be honoured sets up a showdown issue.

All this for my three-year old. It's touching, really.

Well, didn't I see today that the Bloc has already said that they'll back the Tories?

Did they? I hadn't noticed that, though I'm not sure that it surprises me 100%. The Bloc has a complicated game to play because they have to balance the wants and needs of the PQ; and they can't be seen agreeing with Charest on anything.
