Yes, thank you.
MP Kusie has almost 4,000 in her riding, yet her leader, Pierre Poilievre, says it doesn't exist. That's very bad. It's funny, perhaps, but it's very bad, because it discourages more seniors in those ridings from registering. There are, indeed, some issues within Conservative ridings with people not knowing enough about the Canadian dental care plan, but overall, it's great news that 93% of providers—dentists, hygienists and denturists—have registered.
I would point out that the NDP has played a key role in that. Without the NDP's support, this would not have happened, because the Conservatives and the Bloc did everything they could, including in the estimates that we voted just this week, to stop this program from going on.
The question is about why it matters now. In the estimates process, there are important investments to support the development of that important dental care plan.
Thank you, Irek, for all that you do.
