Which one(s) would you cut that will get you the support of a majority of Canadians? Think real hard okay... You make it sound like both those programs are critical to the country, where Dental care is only 650 a year, every been to the dentist with a teenager, 650 does not go as far as you'd like it, and the housing benefit, is a small portion you paid in HST, i get it every bit is good, but don't act as if they are the Lifes blood of the nation. So, Ya those would be a start, along with some others. maybe put those billions into health care would be a start. maybe some into our security apparatus, infra structure...I think the majority of Canadians are more concerned about waiting 12 hours in emergency, here in NB we have had 2 people already die waiting...now that beats the little savings from dental care. 1 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.

I'm not arguing, i am stating a fact that 650.00 dollars is not going to make the change you think it is going to. And yes, that funding should be put in health care, which is desperately needed for all Canadians. most people working have dental care provided by their employer, or company insurance plan, so really, we are talking about a small minority of Canadians that need it and yet it cost billions to implement, billions that could be used in health care. We do not need any more expense social programs that divert money from other more important programs, such as health care. Unless you're of the opinion that Canadian health is perfect as it is now and dumping billions into would be a waste...and that these programs, childcare, and dental care, trump Health care. Just so i am clear, our health care is in shambles, before we go on a spend 10's of billions on new programs perhaps, we should fix the ones we already have... 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.

A small minority in your opinion that is anything but. There's a lot of working people with NO dental or extended medical and even unionized ones with barely more for coverage. The 'employer pays anyway' is also a pretty damned American attitude (if you just got a decent job!) that is pretty weak. You also state again "could be used in health care" when that's exactly what it is being put into. We've been lulled into thinking dental is something else when it wasn't included since Day One. Do you really think needy people should suffer because there's some 'better' priority? Do you really want to continue the Conservative line that "it's a good idea but we can't afford it at this time" knowing full well it's never going to be a good time because money will always be needed for something else like shitbox submarines and corporate tax cuts like their 'child care plan' from 30 years ago?

Approximately six million Canadians cannot afford dental care, out of a population of 37,000,000 you can do the math, it is a small group of people. How many Canadians Cannot afford dental care? - AdvertisingRow.com | Home of Advertising Professionals, Advertising news, Infographics, Job offers Not sure what getting a decent job even means, MacDonalds has a dental plan and that's minimum wage... No, Dental care is not part of Health care as it stands right now, once again what is it you don't understand about, before we create any new social programs maybe we should fix the ones we got. Or are you just collecting social programs. Have you been to the dentist lately, the average cost of braces for a teenager is between 3 to 10 k, shit a filling can cost anywhere from 175 to 375 per tooth. Just how far do you think 650.00 yearly is going to go. If you cater to everyone wishes and needs the country would be bankrupt in weeks. That is the problem with the left they think money grows on trees. Today's liberals have spent more than any other government in our history when are we going to stop the bottom of the pit is almost here. And it is not a conservative line, it is basic money Mangement, do you spend more than you make, then why are we so comfortable with our government doing it. How long do you think it is going to take to whittle down this liberal deficit, 10 years, 50 years, or generations. Let's be reminded it was the liberals that purchased those shitbox subs in order to save a few dollars, that decision cost the lives of Canadian service members, in a fire... so let's not throw around too much shit there is enough to go around for all sides. 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.

You want spending cuts, then cut the spending on shit instead of things that help. I don't want to sound like Bum hole, but 5/6 of the population have no problem with affording dental care. well over the majority would you say... something like 83% give or take, I'm not a math major, but i do have grade 12 math and i think my numbers are looking pretty good. It does not matter whether it was intended to be placed on day one and was left out, the fact is that money has already been allotted right, so it is NEW spending...where does it come from, according to Justin the budget will balance itself, well here is a news flash Economists say it does not work like that, not even close. Yes, it would be nice to have all the social programs we could ever need or want, the problem is who is going to pay for them, you do know Justin is going to raise taxes right, that much is in the media already, that's how we pay for everything.... the problem with all the new ones that have just been rammed through is where is the money coming from? what are we going to cut to get this new money? I already pay enough taxes, I'm sure you do as well, i worked hard for my money, i'd like to keep as much as i can. Thats is the whole story of this post, what i call shit is your things that you think are necessary, like childcare, dental care, boosting benefits, all of them are not necessary, they are wants not needs, goggle how much these programs are costing us every year... 10 's of Bils. that could go further in health care than these programs will every help. Health care is a necessary program, that effects all Canadians except the ultra-rich... Let's fix current programs before we start making new ones, or all we are going to have is under funded programs that are ineffective.

herbie Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 I get it ArmyGuy, you don't think adding dental to the main healthcare is a good idea, but I and the vast majority of voters do. Most employers do too as it would reduce the 'extended benefits' cost from their pocket. We're not likely to change each other's minds. But I will put to you that it's a (not fully) done deal and eliminating it would not look too good on anyone's election platform.
