A leaked draft shows payments up to 100000 dollars annually for 32 hours a week over six months and wage subsidies up to 4.50 per hour, beginning in June. Opposition insists the plan shifts costs to the federal government and excludes 80,000 to 90,000 unemployed not on social assistance.

Survey on motherhood myths shifts views on parenting
A 26 page study by Dr Louis Genevie and Eva Margolies surveyed 1 100 American mothers aged 18 to 80 across income, religion and region. It finds most women do not regret motherhood with 81 percent eager to have more children and 15 percent likely to, while 70 percent report some husband support shortfalls. The study also notes that the "new father" remains uncommon and that mothers still shoulder most childrearing despite high female work rates.
