TEMPLATE

Dear [MPP Name]:

I am a constituent and I am expressing my support for continued investment in licensed child care in the April 11th Ontario Budget including keeping the $2 per hour Provincial Wage Enhancement Grant for Registered Early Childhood Educators and child care workers working in licensed child care.

I am one of over 12,000 people who have signed petitions to the legislature supporting the grant.

This grant provides important income support to educators, helps recruit and retain qualified educators in child care programs and keeps parent fees from rising.

As my elected representative, can I count on your support child care including maintaining this important funding?

Thank you.

[Name, parent/educator, centre name, town/city etc.]
