And if childcare isn't available in Ontario, then women can't work these jobs. Surprise, surprise, you get shortages.

Or a relationship between wages and childcare costs that justify the expense.

It occurs to me that inexpensive, widely available childcare could be seen as a way to keep wages low. That wouldn't be the end of the world if the funding for the program came only from taxes on employers.
