Health committee  Maybe I'll phrase it a different way. Did you or any of your organizations advise the government that while they made a $4.5-billion promise on mental health, they ought to focus on dental care instead? They've clearly changed directions from what they promised in the election

Health committee  Exactly.

Health committee  Thank you again, Mr. Chair. I want to dive into a conversation about dental health for a second. In prefacing, I mentioned my son earlier. At 26, he has some teeth-grinding issues and things that really do impact him. The importance of dental care is not lost on me. It's intere

Health committee  It's fair to say, as we move to Alex, that a $200-million investment over this last period would have yielded generations of benefit in terms of reduced cost.

Health committee  Just doing a quick calculation, if you calculate the $875 million that was promised to have been spent by now, about $200 million would have gone to Quebec. How do you think that money would have been best spent in Quebec, the $200 million toward mental health?

Health committee  It's for you, Dr. Roy.

Health committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. Dr. Powlowski brought up disinformation, and I share his concerns. In fact, in 2018 as a parent of a child with autism, I wrote an op-ed to talk about Andrew Wakefield's disinformation and the impact that it had on parents' decisions to vaccinate their kids

Health committee  On a point of order, Mr. Chair, if the minister were to commit to this, it would make our vote really easy.

Health committee  I'd like a recorded vote, please, Mr. Chair.
