Health committee  That's a great question. Actually, the federal government released a great report in 1971, the ad hoc report on dental auxiliaries. You may want to dig that out of the archives and take a look at it. They talked about this very same issue, about access to care for vulnerable populations and making equitable access for all Canadians.

Health committee  I agree with much of what has been said by the Canadian Dental Association. There are targeted populations who, even though they have financial access to programs through first nations and Inuit health, still do not have access to the providers who can give them the care that they require.
