Today, the Honourable Jean-Yves Duclos, Minister of Public Services and Procurement and Quebec Lieutenant, announced that more than 1 million Canadians have received care under the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and more than 2.7 million Canadians have access to the plan.
This is great! Now hopefully the dental care rollout finishes without a hitch next year for the remaining group of 18-64 year olds.
Having been in a situation where I got into an accident and had to lose a tooth because I didn’t have money to get it fixed (no insurance either), it sucked pretty hard and I still had to save up to get the tooth removed while being in constant pain.
Ouch!! Teeth problems are the worst. I’m surprised they didn’t go the other way around and give dental care to the youngest first, after all, they have the most to live left

I’m not sure either, but I think anyone under 18 has already been covered this year, and I think under 12 years old were covered the year before
