Ontario inks federal child-care deal, retroactive rebates to begin in May

The Ontario government has signed a child-care deal with the federal government, a move that will see child-care fees cut in half by the end of the year and rebates retroactive to April 1 handed out to parents in May.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier Doug Ford formally announced the details of the agreement at a news conference in Brampton on Monday morning.

In a news release, the provincial government said the deal would result in an average of $10 a day for child care by September 2025.
