    Dental care will not be ‘free’. Many dentists will not participate and those who do will not just accept the low fees the government pays and will be balance billing the patient the difference between normal and customary fees and CDBP fees. As well there could be large geographic areas with no participating dentists.

      What? Young Canadians will benefit the most from a lifetime of improved health care. If anyone should be upset, it's the old people who went their whole lives without this.

      @@JoachimwGermain-co4zw For starters, most people spend parts of their lives without coverage. This program can fill those gaps. On top of that, the program will help keep people healthy, reducing strain on hospitals, and other social programs. Most importantly, however, is that it simply helps those who need the most help at any given time. That ought to be reason enough.
