Calandra tells Ontario daycares to prevent parking adjacent to facilities after deadly crash

Ontario’s education minister is telling licensed daycare providers to immediately prevent the use of parking spaces directly adjacent to child-care facilities, after a toddler was killed when an SUV crashed into a daycare north of Toronto.

In a memo to daycares obtained by The Canadian Press, Paul Calandra – who first proposed the measures several days ago – says the goal is to “better safeguard” children and child-care providers.
