Happy Rock Childrens Centre
The Happy Rock Children’s Centre (HRCC) has been an incorporated childcare facility in Gladstone for over 30 years. Since the late ‘80s, the centre has operated out of a space located in the basement of the Seven Regions Health Centre. Over the years, the program has evolved, alongside parameters set out by the Manitoba Childcare Association of Manitoba. With the continual adaptations to comply with government standards, the centre finds an increased difficulty to operate out of its limited space at Seven Regions.

It is about 10 years overdue, as it was in 2007 that the former NDP government imposed a moratorium on hog barn construction. It was an ill-conceived and devastating move. It’s main purpose was to set up an elaborate smokescreen to divert attention from the NDP’s main purpose. That main effect was to elevate public sector union numbers as high as possible to placate the union demands.
