Erin O’Toole thinks he can pull Canada out of its economic rut, and his election platform depends completely on him doing so. There are already not enough daycare spots to go around, and the quality of some of those spots is not assured. Growth and productivity are essential ingredients for the Conservative platform, too. Boosting that growth to three per cent would make all sorts of things much easier in Canada, not just balancing the budget. Now O’Toole aims to cancel the one program that we know would boost productivity and growth — subsidized daycare and the creation of new spots.
