Your daily horoscope: January 31, 2026

  IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY Your passion for work will take up a large percentage of your time this year and your efforts will be praised far and wide. But you also need to set aside time for the people in your life who require something different, not least your love. ARIES (March 21 - April 20): You may be tempted to push yourself even harder and faster this weekend but the planets indicate you will accomplish more if you slow down a bit. Why do all the difficult stuff yourself when you can easily persuade others to assist you? TAURUS (April 21 - May 21): The best way to impress people in positions of authority isn’t to make a big show of what you are doing but to stay calm and get through your tasks one at a time.

Canadian Dental Care Plan: Who Qualifies?

 

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) aims to provide essential dental coverage to those in need. To be eligible for this program, you must meet the following criteria:

  1. Canadian Residency: You must be a Canadian resident for tax purposes.

  2. Adjusted Family Net Income: Your adjusted family net income should be less than $90,000. This calculation considers various factors, including income reported on tax returns and any universal child care benefit or registered disability savings plan income received.

  3. Filed Tax Return: You must have filed your tax return in the previous year.

  4. No Access to Dental Insurance: To qualify, you must not have access to dental insurance. This includes coverage through employers, family members, pensions, professional or student organizations, or group plans from insurance companies. Even if you choose to opt out of available benefits, you are still considered to have access to dental insurance.

If you already have dental coverage through provincial, territorial, or federal government social programs, you can still qualify for the CDCP. In such cases, your coverage will be coordinated to avoid duplication or gaps in care.

Remember that providing false information on your application may result in removal from the plan, and ineligible family members may need to repay the full cost of care received through the CDCP.
