Campaign promise

Enhance the back-to-school supplement and create a credit for school-based child care fees

Coalition avenir Québec

Quantified target

Turn the school supplies supplement into a "back-to-school supplement" that could rise from $127 to $250 per child depending on family income; create a tax credit refunding up to 75% of school-based child care fees, with a refund of up to $1,309 per child. The party estimates that more than 500,000 children could benefit from the credit and that combined support could exceed $1,400 per child per year for some families. Both measures would require a budgetary or regulatory change, conditional on re-election.
