The province and the federal government have announced additional support for early learning and child care through the one-year, Canada-Saskatchewan early Learning and Child Care Agreement.
The agreement allocates approximately $13.6 million in federal funding. Specifically, Saskatchewan will invest in access to licensed early learning and child care, creating early learning opportunities for children experiencing disability, supporting Francophone early learning and child care, and training opportunities for educators and staff.

In addition, the Government of Canada announced $625 million to address the reduced availability of child care and the unique needs stemming from the pandemic across Canada through the Safe Restart Agreement. The Government of Canada will have invested nearly $1.2 billion to support child care in 2020-21.
