“The dental care plan helps millions of Canadians, including over 21,000 people in my riding. My office is holding an open house this week to help local residents sign up or renew their coverage.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, the dental care plan is having a real impact on the lives of Canadians. Across our beautiful country, 4.3 million people have received dental care since the program’s launch, and over 21,000 residents in Pierrefonds—Dollard are benefiting from the plan. This week at my constituency office, we are hosting our fourth open house to help residents renew and enrol in their dental coverage. Oral health is a fundamental right. That is why our team is there to provide individual support. Programs like the dental care plan show what we can achieve when we put Canadians first. Canadians no longer have to compromise on dental care. Our government will continue to work to improve everyone’s quality of life. This week, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., residents of Pierrefonds—Dollard are welcome to drop by my office without an appointment to renew their dental plan.
