The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
4th Session
42nd Parliament
A
Thank
you
so
much
honorable
speaker.
Do
you
know
how
our
childhood
experience
can
impact
the
rest
of
the
remedies?
Reactions
relationships,
the
way
we
are
and
who
we
are?
Do
you
know
how
90
of
our
brain
growth
happens
before
the
age
of
five,
which
can
also
shape
our
future
learning
health
and
whole
life?
A
Success
recently,
we've
debated
so
much
about
mental
health,
health
crime,
social
issues
in
the
house
and
every
time
I
hear
about
those
debates,
I
think
about
how
critical
it
is
to
invest
in
child
care
and
early
learning
to
solve
many
many
of
the
issues.
If
not
all
the
issues
investing
in
public
education
and
child
care
is
one
of
the
most
effective
and
principal
things
we
could
do
as
politicians
and
temporary
seeholders
in
a
house
to
fix
things
in
the
long
term.
A
If
we
only
focus
on
short-term
needs
and
solutions,
the
2018
Child
Care
VC
plan
and
the
2021
canada-wide
Early
Learning
agreement
would
have
never
happened,
but
it
is
such
an
important
investment
that
has
already
changed
the
lives
of
many
families
today
and
well
for
generations
to
come,
and
we
still
have
a
lot
to
do.
May
is
child
care
a
month,
I'm
thinking
of
a
single
mom
who
told
me
how
she
could
not
find
or
afford
child
care.
A
So
she
ended
up,
leaving
her
job
and
leaving
on
assistance
for
a
period
of
time
and
she
described
it
as
the
worst
time
of
her
life,
not
just
financially,
but
also
social.
Emotionally,
he
also
impacted
her
children
significantly,
not
investing
in
child
care.
Hurts
families,
hurt
our
economy
and
hurt
the
foundation
of
our
society.
It
leads
to
many
of
the
problems
we
debate
in
this
house.
A
It
can
affect
generations
to
come
so
today,
I
want
to
celebrate
the
child
care
months,
recognizing
all
the
families
Advocates
and
early
learning
professionals
who
have
pushed
the
government
for
better
changes.
That's
all
celebrated
Child
Care
month
with
continued
Investments,
meaningful
actions
and
bold
policies
to
bring
Equitable,
affordable,
inclusive
child
care
to
All
Families
in
BC.
Thank
you.
