There is also little evidence that the federal government is achieving its goal of boosting the labour force participation of women with children.

The total labour force participation rate for women was 61.5 percent in September 2023 compared to a high of 61.7 percent in 2015.

And recent increases in the size of the female labour force were concentrated in Quebec and among women with adolescent children, both groups that are unaffected by the new federal program.

Just like the hundreds of billions he has spent trying to reduce Canada's paltry 1.5% share of global emissions. Our money wasted.

It is another expensive federal program that doesn't produce the results we were promised, but once implemented becomes permanent.
