Mr. Speaker, I want members to notice that I am smiling today to remind the House that April is Dental Health Month in Canada.
This month provides an opportunity for all Canadians to show off their teeth by sharing their smiles. I am proud to note that Canadians enjoy one of the highest standards of oral health in the world. This is thanks in large part to Canadian dentistry's commitment to disease prevention.
For years now the Canadian Dental Association, provincial associations, and local societies have sponsored many educational activities and projects of interest to both children and adults. These include mural displays, radio, television, and billboard ads, newspaper supplements and free dental clinics.
Please join me in saluting the efforts of the Canadian Dental Association and allied national and provincial associations for their commitment to good oral health.
I would like to ask all the members of the House to just say cheese.
