Mr. Speaker, in 2022, one in four Canadians skipped a visit to the dentist because of cost. Thanks to our government's Canadian dental care plan, over 1.2 million Canadians have now received oral health care. Applications for the Canadian dental care plan launched one year ago; today, more than three million Canadians now have dental coverage.
Can the Minister of Health share how the CDCP is making life more affordable and helping Canadians access essential dental care?
