The early learning and child care industry in Canada : business characteristics and industry gross domestic product / by Jeff Archer, Bradley Duhamel, Ryan Macdonald, Jenny Watt and Hong Nei (Connie) Yam. : CS36-28-0001/2021-8-6E-PDF

"This paper examines child care in Canada, and in the provinces and territories, which is provided by firms through markets, as well as early learning services that are funded by governments through junior kindergarten and kindergarten. The latter can serve as substitutes for child care provided by firms and needs to be included to facilitate interprovincial and interterritorial comparisons. The paper uses administrative datasets to identify firms that provide child care services in Canada. The child care firms are then used as a basis to examine the revenue and gross domestic product of the child care industry based on the type of firm (incorporated versus unincorporated) generating the income. Business dynamics measures for entry, exit and survival, as well as firm characteristics, such as the mixture of small and large firms, the geographic distribution of firms, and the gender structure of ownership, are also examined"--Abstract, page 1.
