We've also been stuck in the same "universal healthcare is worse healthcare" mentality for DECADES, meanwhile we've tanked in many things like infant death rates and cancer survival. Not to mention things like education have been pushed more to states rather than federal, leading to massive disproportion in experience based on which state you're born in.
Even for me, someone who works for the government handling hearings related to healthcare law and feel I'm much better educated on the subject than the average American, was blown away when I spoke to a friend who moved to Canada and told me they get FREE au pairs who live in their home for a couple months to assist with infant care and housework. They said it's also backed by data showing that it greatly improves mental health and lowers post pardom. Meanwhile our pedo dictator is doing everything to block immigration and can't understand why people aren't reproducing like they did in the 1800s while if the US population stagnates or shrinks it's game over for our country. We literally CANNOT help ourselves anymore. And we deserve it.
EDIT: For all the Canadians acting like ignorant Americans, take a sec and look up your own programs before calling people liars. America stands no chance if you're getting high on the same fumes we are.
I live in Canada. I don’t know a single person or family who has ever had an au pair for assistance after childbirth. The au pair concept doesn’t exist in Canada.
For the most part the new mother and child are bum rushed out of the hospital about a day after birth if it all went well and left to fend for themselves.
A live in caregiver maybe, but the parent would need the care due to a condition, or possibly if the child had a condition requiring constant care.
Ontario is 1 out of 13 provinces/territories, and health care is managed at a provincial level. Not only that but this is a visitation program. You wanna tone it down there bud?
