Toronto police and provincial officials are investigating the death of a four-month-old boy who died at an unlicensed home daycare earlier this month.
The baby boy was found without vital signs at an apartment building at 20 Broadoaks Dr., near Keele Street and Finch Avenue West, in north Toronto on Feb. 14.

The cause of death remains under investigation and police have classified the death as suspicious, which is standard for all deaths of children under five. According to protocol, the investigation is being done in consultation with the homicide squad, Kwong told CP24.
In a written statement, Education Minister Liz Sandals said a “preliminary review†of her ministry’s records found no previous complaints about the informal (unlicensed) home daycare where the boy died.
She said her ministry, which is responsible for child care in Ontario, launched an investigation after it learned of the infant’s death on Feb. 18.

It's a shame that people have to take their kids to these unlicensed day cares. But the reality is that the licensed day cares are charging an arm and leg. Most working class people simply cannot afford the fees. I remember my cousin constantly complaining how expensive daycare was for her two kids.
