Merci, Carney! First week of Canada's new PM.
We’re expanding the Canadian Dental Care Plan. Starting today, Canadians aged 55-64 can apply. In the coming weeks, applications will open to Canadians aged 18-54.
Because of this plan, millions of people can now afford to see a dentist — some for the first time in decades. Soon, millions more will get that same care.

What I love most about this Hermosa Beach lawn sign is not the message. It's not the color. Not the glitter (real glitter, btw). It's the "and Tim!" stamp just like Barbie had for her Ken. The whole rhing is really fun.
