    Hey guys I want everyone in Canada to have dental care without cost of use, but I’m anxious about the sustainability of a program that pays for dental care through paystub deductions while extending coverage to retirees.

    I think the Healthcare funding model in this country is already ill-equipped to handle the boomers retiring (thanks boomers) without us giving them dental care they haven’t paid for.

    It needs to be funded through capital gains taxes.
