Canada just released its timetable to phase routine maintenance dental care into a consolidated health plan.

It's starting small, but if our Republican wanna-bes don't kill it we could have universal coverage and equal access to dental care regardless of economic station.

Everyone deserves free healthcare and dental, I pray you get to see that dream.

The provincial conservatives where I live are trying their best to destroy that universal healthcare. It's rather infuriating.

I bet, I’m just glad to see areas of the world have it. Gives a little hope to some of us in the states.

Hopefully the conservatives in your area aren’t the majority.

They won 60% of the seats in parliament with only 40% of the voted. I fucking hate first past the post elections.

It's crazy that teeth and eyes are separate from the rest of healthcare.
