Sunlife is gonna administer the national dental plan. Provinces could have easily administered it. Don't count out another insurance company "managing" national pharmacare. The insurance companies aren't gonna let a cash cow walk out the door.

Edit: I won't be enrolling in the national dental plan. Between low level of reimbursement and Sunlife administering it ... makes no business sense for me.
