The Supreme Court of Canada says it will hear a challenge from the Quebec government to a lower court ruling granting asylum seekers access to subsidized daycare spaces.

In a decision released today, the Supreme Court says it will hear Quebec’s appeal of a February 2024 decision from the province’s highest court, which found that Quebec’s daycare rules are discriminatory.
