Thank you.
To the Canadian Dental Association, thanks for being here.
We know the work that the CDA has done. Somewhere between 33% and 35% of Canadians have no dental coverage at all at any time. Now, as you pointed out, we know about three million Canadians have lost their employment as a result of COVID-19 and with that, any dental coverage they may have had through their employer.
Do you believe it's time to reevaluate Canada's method of delivering dental care so we can ensure that all Canadians get access to essential oral health?
