About this listen

In April, the Alberta government brought in a $15 flat-rate fee for daycare. It’s a partnership with the federal government and the province that is meant to help parents pay for affordable childcare. But parents say the plan isn’t actually more affordable — instead they’ve been hit with additional fees and fewer options. Host Clare Bonnyman sits down with CBC reporter Sarah Reid who’s been following the changes to Alberta’s system.
