Excerpts from the agreement:
The Governments of Canada and New Brunswick have developed this bilateral agreement to articulate their shared vision for early learning and child care and to describe specific objectives and investments to advance this vision. At the same time, New Brunswick commits to participating with federal, provincial and territorial partners in a multilateral process to create an overarching early learning and child care framework for all Canadians, which meets the unique circumstances and priorities of each jurisdiction.
New Brunswick's vision is to build on its significant investments to date, creating an early learning and child care system that focuses on quality, affordability and accessibility. New Brunswick will continue to make strategic investments through its Quality Improvement Funding Support Program to ensure that child care facilities and their workers are able to provide quality programming.
