This pamphlet presents the facts about the size of the child population, the number and percentage of day care spaces to serve these children in licensed day care, the fees, the number of women in the workforce, and the availability of day care as a percentage of women in the work force. It also traces the history of the movement and government action from the Second Canadian Day Care Conference in 1982 to the Report of the Katie Cooke Task Force on Child Care in 1987.
