Mr. Speaker, one million Canadians have been able to get the dental care they need, and that number will continue to rise with the over 48,000 Newfoundlanders and Labradorians who are now approved to receive care, thanks to our government's Canadian dental care plan.
Our government understands that oral care is health care, and it is delivering dental care to keep Canadians healthy and reduce the strain on our health care system. We will ensure that Newfoundlanders and Labradorians have access to oral care through the Canadian dental care plan, a program that the Conservatives have blocked at every step.
