Quebec's $7-a-day daycare program faces corruption probe.
Oh, this is beautiful.
Two of Quebec's distinguishing characteristics in one headline. The vaunted $7/day daycare -- held up as an exemplary model of socialist Quebec and made possible because the rest of Canada shovels, what is it, seven or eight billion dollars a year in eternal subsidies Quebec's way while Quebec is up to its eyeballs in debt.
Plus, of course, world-class corruption.
Why Quebec puffs itself up and thinks it's something special is beyond me.
It's honest, tax-paying working stiffs who first pay their own way and then the way of others that make Canada great -- not the loads and loads of movers and takers.
And that's the way the Ball bounces.

Well... Those are the same Quebecers who vote in their governments in elections... in the same way, and with the same system, that the current federal government has come to power.
.
Not to mention that the daycares that were selected for subsidy were mostly substandard. In any case the educator/child educator/baby ratio and the square footage per child/baby ratio are among the worst in Canada.
