This brief outlines objectives for spending Canadian child care-linked funds in 2013 -- the Child Care Expense Deduction and the Universal Child Care Benefit -- in addition to a considered third fund called "income splitting." It questions their effectiveness in benefitting all families and points to the provision of a universal national child care program as a more fiscally- and socially-sound option.
