Mr. Speaker, over 105,000 Albertans are now eligible for the Canadian dental care plan, and 750,000 Canadians have already received care. The numbers speak for themselves. Canadians want the CDCP. Accessing dental care should not be political. This is a historic program, and we must protect and build our public health care system so that it is well-equipped to meet the needs of Canadians today and for generations to come.
