Why won’t Justin Trudeau support childcare?

Earlier this week, a report co-authored by Liberal advisor, Kevin Milligan from the University of British Columbia was released.

The report states: “that children exposed to the province's child-care system were more likely to have higher crime rates…” - Globe and Mail, September 21, 2015.

The same day, Trudeau refused to provide any solid plan for childcare instead saying “we will give it the care and the full consideration it deserves” but he refused to explain what he thought that meant.

Is his advisor’s study part of that “consideration”?

Does Mr. Trudeau agree with the findings of this study?

What specifically about childcare does Justin Trudeau think turns the kids of hard-working parents in to criminals?

Did Mr. Trudeau push this study by his advisor in order to distract from his own lack of leadership and refusal to deliver a concrete plan that will help hard-working middle-class families and their kids?
