Health Extras: Dental, Drugs, Eyes & More

If OHIP would already pay for it, this isn't the list. This is the list of health costs your OHIP card doesn't touch: teeth, prescriptions, glasses, hearing support, quitting smoking, and the everyday care — feet, massage, getting understood in your own language — that falls outside what a health card covers. Every entry below is either genuinely free, subsidized (and says what it costs, where the provider states it), or a coverage program you apply to (and says what it covers and who qualifies) — never blurred together.

Not here: mental health and addiction services live in a dedicated guide (Fleet #8) — see there instead of here. Campus health/dental plans and campus clinics are covered per-campus in Guides 04A–04H. Pet and veterinary care is its own guide. Crisis lines are in Guide 01, In Crisis Now. Food and nutrition support is Guide 03. This guide doesn't repeat any of those.

If you have no OHIP card, or no coverage at all

Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP) Temporary federal health coverage for refugee (asylum) claimants: hospital services, visits to health-care professionals, vision care, emergency dental care, prescription medications, plus one Immigration Medical Exam and related diagnostic tests — lasts until you get provincial health insurance or leave Canada. IRCC determines eligibility automatically once you file a claim and issues a coverage letter you can use to access care; manage it online through an IRCC account or by mail. canada.ca — IFHP Who it's for: refugee/asylum claimants, Canada-wide. Apply online or by mail; ID required. Coverage ends automatically if your claim is withdrawn or declared abandoned.

Access Alliance — Non-Insured Clinic (NIC) Free confidential primary care (nurse practitioner, nurse, midwife) by appointment for immigrants and refugees in Toronto with no health insurance and no primary care provider — no legal status, an expired/rejected refugee claim, or minimum-wage temp work without private insurance all qualify. 340 College St, Suite 500. accessalliance.ca Who it's for: uninsured immigrants/refugees, Toronto. Appointment only — call 416-324-9380 Mon 9:00–9:30am (books Mon/Tue) or Thu 9:00–9:30am (books Thu/Fri). No ID required for most applicants; Mexican nationals specifically must show proof of visa/ETA status.

FCJ Refugee Centre — Primary Health Clinic Free primary care and psychiatry for anyone living in Canada with no insurance at all, regardless of immigration status. fcjrefugeecentre.org/health-clinic Who it's for: anyone with zero insurance, Canadian residents. Appointment by phone, Tuesdays only — not a walk-in/daily clinic; no documents required.

Blue Door Clinic (Casey House) Free, confidential HIV primary care for people in the GTA who are uninsured or precariously insured — health assessments, HIV and other treatment, lab testing, immunizations, specialist referrals, case management and peer support. 119 Isabella St. caseyhouse.ca — Blue Door Clinic Who it's for: people without OHIP or IFHP coverage — newcomers awaiting status, migrant workers, visitors, international students, and Canadian-born people lacking adequate ID — GTA. Self-referral or provider referral; appointment only (Mon 9:30am–12pm; Wed/Thu 9:30am–3:30pm).

If you have OHIP but still can't afford dental, glasses, prescriptions, or equipment

Hardship Fund — Help with Health-Related Expenses (City of Toronto) Funding toward eyeglasses, emergency dental work, prescription medication, and medical items or equipment (walkers, hearing aids, hospital beds and more) for low-income Toronto residents not on Ontario Works or ODSP — apply regardless of immigration status. Apply before paying: the fund doesn't reimburse something you've already bought. Approved eyeglasses are issued as a voucher faxed to City Optical, redeemable at any of their locations. toronto.ca — health support Who it's for: low-income Toronto residents not receiving OW/ODSP/Emergency Assistance, any immigration status. Apply by phone, 416-338-8888 option 3, with a cost estimate for what you need; proof of income required.

Ontario Works Additional/Discretionary Benefits (Toronto) For people already on Ontario Works, ad hoc case-by-case help beyond the monthly cheque: eyeglasses/eye exams, emergency dental, medical supplies and equipment, medical transportation, a special diet allowance, and guide/service dog care, among other items. Amounts aren't guaranteed — frame this as "worth asking your caseworker," not an entitlement. ODSP recipients themselves get dental specifically through a separate program called Accerta (ask your ODSP caseworker) — it's their adult (18+) dependants who go through this OW-administered channel instead. toronto.ca — Ontario Works benefits Who it's for: people on Ontario Works, and — for these specific health items — adult (18+) dependants of ODSP recipients, Toronto. Referral through your caseworker.

Teeth

Free Dental Care (Toronto Public Health Clinics) Free basic dental care — exams, x-rays, fillings, cleaning, some root canals, extractions, urgent/emergency care, silver diamine fluoride — for eligible children/youth 0–17, clients of select TPH programs, and low-income seniors 65+ through the Ontario Seniors Dental Care Program (OSDCP). OSDCP's own income limits, effective for applications from August 1, 2026: single seniors $25,480/year net income or less, couples $42,290/year combined or less (you can apply from July 1, 2026 onward, ahead of that date). Full/partial dentures are covered but you pay the full lab cost. Eligibility for every group is assessed only in person at a TPH clinic. toronto.ca — free dental care Who it's for: children/youth 0–17, select TPH program clients, low-income seniors 65+, Toronto. Contact a TPH dental clinic to arrange this — you must come in person to be assessed, and required documents vary by situation, so call ahead to check what to bring. Adults 18–64 without private insurance are pointed to the Canadian Dental Care Plan or a City list of low-cost clinics if not eligible here.

Healthy Smiles Ontario Free routine, preventive and emergency dental care for children/youth 17 and under in households earning $28,523 (1 child) up to $47,952 (10+ children) a year or less — confirmed on the province's own income table, current as of July 1, 2025, rising roughly $2,159 per additional child — with no income test at all if the family is on Ontario Works, ODSP, or has First Nations status (except OW recipients living in a First Nations community, who must apply separately by mail). The Emergency/Essential stream skips the tax-filing requirement but caps at 3 lifetime enrollments. ontario.ca — Healthy Smiles Ontario Who it's for: children/youth 0–17 in income-eligible households, or any age-eligible child on OW/ODSP/First Nations status, Ontario. Apply online or by mail; ID and proof of income required. Confirm a specific dentist accepts it first — reimbursement runs below cost for some procedures and some dentists decline it.

Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) Covers a portion of oral health costs — exams, cleanings, fillings, dentures and more — for eligible uninsured Canadian residents; 2026–2027 benefit-period applications are open now. You need no access to any private dental coverage, a filed tax return (you and your spouse), and adjusted family net income under $90,000 — all three figures confirmed directly on the plan's own "Do you qualify" page. canada.ca — Canadian Dental Care Plan Who it's for: uninsured Canadian residents under the income threshold, Canada-wide. Apply online; tax filing required. Coverage percentage varies by service — this is not a full-cost program.

ODSP Dental Coverage Basic dental coverage for ODSP recipients and their spouse, with extra coverage where a disability or medication affects oral health; all family members under 18 are auto-covered through Healthy Smiles Ontario regardless of ODSP status. OW adult dependants 18+ may get dental help through OW's discretionary benefits (above). ontario.ca — ODSP health and disability benefits Who it's for: ODSP recipients and their families, Ontario. No referral or authorization needed — just bring your ODSP monthly statement of assistance or government ID to a dentist who accepts ODSP recipients (not all do; call ahead to confirm before you go); no flat dollar cap published.

Urban Dental Clinic (Canadian Centre for Refugee and Immigrant Healthcare) Low-cost urgent dental care for low-income, uninsured Torontonians — no OHIP required. healthequity.ca Who it's for: low-income, uninsured Toronto residents, any documentation status. Pay-what-you-can; call 416-289-4349 first.

University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry Patient Clinics General and specialty dental care — exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns, root canals, dentures — at lower fees than private practice (exact discount not published), from supervised dental students. Accepts CDCP and other government dental coverage. 101 Elm St. patients.dentistry.utoronto.ca Who it's for: anyone, Toronto. Book by phone; not free — reduced-fee, supervised-student care with longer appointment times than a private clinic.

George Brown WAVE Dental Clinic Low-cost dental hygiene and restorative care from supervised dental hygiene students, ages 4+ — not free, but well below private-clinic cost. Examination: $5 child / $10 mixed dentition / $20 adult. Scaling, polishing and client education: $10–$20. X-rays: $15–40. Fillings: $50–90. Dentures (6+ appointments): $90–400. Teeth whitening: $120. Fees in effect as of September 2025, subject to change.

Self-register online, by email (chsclientservices@georgebrown.ca) or phone (416-415-4547) — no referral needed. Runs school-year only, suspended during school closures/holidays. Supervised-student appointment, longer than a regular cleaning.

Toronto College of Dental Hygiene and Auxiliaries (TCDHA) Student Clinic Dental hygiene treatment by supervised students: children 3–12 get cleaning, x-rays, sealants and fluoride all free; adults 13–59 pay $32 for cleaning (x-rays, sealants and fluoride still free); seniors 60+ get everything free, same as children. Also free sports/mouth guards; teeth-whitening kits cost $95 (full) or $55 (refill). This pricing is now confirmed directly on the college's own working site — a previous version of this row pointed at a JS-rendered booking page that couldn't be read at all. toronto-college-dental.org — Become a Patient Who it's for: anyone, Toronto; free for ages 3–12 and 60+. No referral needed — fill out the "Become a Patient" form on the clinic's own site or call 416-423-3099. 28 Vanley Crescent; Mon–Thu 7am–8pm, Fri 7am–8pm, Sat 7am–4pm, closed Sunday.

Prescriptions and pharmacy

OHIP+ (under-25 prescription drug coverage) Free coverage of 5,900+ Ontario Drug Benefit formulary medications for anyone 24 and under with OHIP who isn't covered by a private plan — no enrollment, just your health card and prescription. Includes insulin/diabetes supplies, ADHD and mental-health medications, epinephrine auto-injectors, smoking-cessation drugs, and oral contraceptives/IUDs/emergency contraception. ontario.ca — OHIP+ Who it's for: anyone 24 and under with OHIP and no private drug plan, Ontario. No separate enrollment — bring your health card and prescription to any pharmacy.

Trillium Drug Program For households with high prescription-drug costs relative to income who aren't already covered by the Ontario Drug Benefit: pay an income-based deductible (about 4% of after-tax household income, split into 4 quarterly instalments), then a maximum $2 per prescription for the rest of the program year (August 1–July 31) — both figures confirmed directly on the program's own page today. Covers 5,900+ formulary drugs plus roughly 1,500 more through the Exceptional Access Program. ontario.ca — help with high prescription drug costs Who it's for: Ontario residents with a valid health card and high drug costs relative to income. Apply online with proof of income (tax return); apply by Sept 30 to be reimbursed for the prior program year.

Ontario Drug Benefit (ODB) Program Covers most of the cost of 5,900+ formulary medications. Auto-enrolled if you're 65+, on Ontario Works or ODSP, in long-term care, or receiving home/community care. OW/ODSP/long-term-care/ home-care recipients pay up to $2/prescription with no deductible (nothing at all if 24 or under); seniors pay a $100/year deductible (prorated by birth month — as low as $8.33 if born in June) plus up to $6.11/prescription unless enrolled in the Seniors Co-Payment Program below — every figure here confirmed directly on the program's own page today. ontario.ca — get coverage for prescription drugs Who it's for: seniors 65+, and OW/ODSP/long-term-care/home-care recipients of any age, Ontario. No separate enrollment once auto-enrolled — bring your Ontario health card to any pharmacy.

ODB Seniors Co-Payment Program For low-income seniors already on the Ontario Drug Benefit: waives the standard $100/year deductible entirely and caps your co-payment at $2/prescription instead of up to $6.11. Income cutoff for the August 2026–July 2027 program year, confirmed on the program's own page today: $25,480/year net income if you don't have a spouse, or $42,290/year combined net income if you do (thresholds are reviewed for inflation most years, so check the current figure when you apply). ontario.ca — Seniors Co-Payment Program Who it's for: low-income seniors 65+ already on ODB, under the income thresholds above, Ontario. Separate online application required — you can apply up to 3 months before your 65th birthday.

Ontario Naloxone Program for Pharmacies Free injectable or nasal-spray naloxone overdose-reversal kits plus in-person training at participating pharmacies — no prescription or health card required, up to two kits per day. ontario.ca — get naloxone kits for free Who it's for: anyone, Ontario — no documents required. Not every pharmacy stocks kits; call ahead or use the province's location map.

Harm Reduction Supplies & Services (Toronto Public Health) Free needles/syringes, safer smoking equipment, naloxone kits with training, a free drug-checking service, and Opioid Agonist Treatment referral, reached through mobile/street outreach — Toronto Public Health closed its own walk-in storefront at 277 Victoria St. on April 1, 2025, and doesn't run one directly anymore. For in-person supervised consumption or overdose prevention, the program now refers to three independently-run sites instead: Casey House, Kensington Market Overdose Prevention Site, and Street Health — each site's own details can change, so confirm directly before you go. toronto.ca — substance use clinical services Who it's for: anyone, Toronto. Call 416-392-0520 for mobile/street outreach — there is no walk-in storefront anymore. No documents required.

Eyes

Before anything else: make sure you're not already covered. OHIP pays for eye exams for more people than most readers assume — check the entry below before you pay out of pocket for one.

OHIP-Covered Eye Exams One fully OHIP-covered major eye exam every 12 months for anyone 19 and under, plus minor assessments as needed; one covered major eye exam every 18 months for seniors 65+ (every 12 months with an eligible eye condition). A widely underused benefit — many people in these age bands still pay out of pocket for an exam OHIP would already cover. Adults 20–64 without an eligible medical condition are not covered and pay privately, except people 20–64 receiving Ontario Works or ODSP, who get a covered eye exam once every 24 months. ontario.ca — what OHIP covers Who it's for: anyone 19 and under, seniors 65+, and OW/ODSP recipients 20–64, Ontario. No separate enrollment — book with any optometrist and bring your health card.

For everyone else, or for help affording glasses and vision rehab:

ODSP/OW Vision Care Benefit Routine eye exams (once every 2 years) plus help with prescription eyeglasses (once every 3 years) and repairs, for ODSP recipients and family members under 18; adult OW dependants 18+ may get vision help through OW's discretionary benefits (above). Only applies where OHIP doesn't already cover vision care; covers up to a maximum eyewear amount not published on the source page. ontario.ca — ODSP health and disability benefits Who it's for: ODSP recipients and their families under 18, Ontario. Requires a vision care benefit authorization form from your local ODSP office.

Balance for Blind Adults Free customized independent-living training and support for people who are blind or living with sight loss — orientation and mobility, adaptive daily-living skills, assistive-technology training, employment programs, community engagement and mental-health/wellness support. Fees may apply for some group programs. Currently operating virtually while sourcing new office space; program locations vary by event. balancefba.org Who it's for: people 16+ who are blind or have sight loss, Toronto/GTA. Contact by phone.

CNIB Smartlife (technology programs) Free rehabilitation and support for anyone with partial or full vision loss, plus a CELA-partnered library of accessible materials for people with print disabilities — free tech workshops and 1:1 sessions (Tech Primer Cafes, iOS/VoiceOver training and more), including some at CNIB's Toronto Bayview location. Note: the cnibsmartlife.ca storefront sells assistive-technology products for a fee — that's separate from the free programs linked here. cnib.ca — technology programs Who it's for: anyone with vision loss or a print disability, Canada-wide; some sessions are Toronto-specific.

Ears

Canadian Helen Keller Centre Training for people with combined vision and hearing loss (moderate to Deaf-Blind) to build daily-living skills, plus seniors programming, supportive apartments (a 16-unit building on Willowdale Ave, with a new 56-unit building opening in Etobicoke-Lakeshore in 2026), and Intervenor Services across Ontario. A separate fee-for-service structure applies alongside the subsidized programs. chkc.org Who it's for: people with combined vision and hearing loss, Toronto/Ontario. Contact by phone; mixed free/paid model.

CNIB Deafblind Community Services (DBCS) — Free Intervenor Services Trained intervenors act as the "eyes and ears" of people who are deafblind — tactile ASL, large-print notes and other methods to support banking, shopping, medical appointments and community access — plus an emergency intervenor line. deafblindservices.ca Who it's for: people who are deafblind, Toronto. Contact 647-281-3740 (Toronto) or the emergency line 1-855-862-6001; no documents required.

Honest gap — widened 2026-07-30: removing FT-9619 Bob Rumball Canadian Centre of Excellence for the Deaf (its access model stayed unresolved across repeated passes) leaves no general Deaf or hard-of-hearing services door in this guide at all. The two remaining entries in this section — Canadian Helen Keller Centre and CNIB Deafblind Community Services — both serve people with combined vision and hearing loss (deafblind) specifically, not the broader Deaf/hard-of-hearing population who aren't also losing their sight. A reader who is Deaf or hard of hearing but not deafblind has no entry point in this guide as of v0.3. The one partial door this lane found elsewhere in the fleet: Canadian Hearing Services — CONNECT Mental Health Counselling (FT-9917), ACTIVE in the atlas and already cited in Guide 11 (Mental Health and Addiction) under its own "Deaf and hard of hearing" heading — but it covers only mental-health/addiction counselling delivered in ASL/LSQ, not the developmental, residential, seniors', youth/family or sign-language-education support Bob Rumball listed, and it lives in a different guide by this fleet's own "not here, see Guide 11" rule at the top of this page. It does not close this gap. Separately, no dedicated free or subsidized hearing-test or hearing-aid clinic row exists in the atlas either — Ontario's Assistive Devices Program partially funds hearing aids province-wide but has no row here, and the Hardship Fund and OW Discretionary Benefits (above) both name "hearing aids" as an eligible cost category without being a hearing-specific clinic. Closing these gaps would need either a phone-verified Bob Rumball access model that lets FT-9619 come back next month, or a replacement general Deaf-services entry sourced independently.

Quitting smoking

STOP Smoking-Cessation Program Free evidence-based tobacco/nicotine cessation treatment, two ways to join — and you can't do both within the same 12-month period. STOP on the Net: enroll online any time and get free quit-smoking medication mailed to you, a 6-week supply arriving within about 2 weeks of enrollment. In-clinic STOP: ask your Family Health Team, Community Health Centre, Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic, Regional Cancer Centre or Addictions Agency whether they run the program — it offers up to 26 weeks of free nicotine replacement therapy (patch, gum, inhaler, lozenge) plus counselling. Separately, anyone 18+ on the Ontario Drug Benefit gets up to a year of pharmacist counselling plus prescription cessation drugs (Champix/Zyban) covered. ontario.ca — support to quit smoking Who it's for: Ontario residents (must live in Ontario to enroll in STOP). STOP on the Net: no documents, enroll online any time. In-clinic STOP: ask if your regular health provider participates — there's no direct public sign-up.

Menstrual products

New in v0.5 — a theme this guide previously lacked entirely. Two doors: one for people already inside the shelter/respite system, one for anyone else looking for free products in the community.

Free Menstrual Products (Shelters, 24-Hour Respites & Women's Drop-ins) A City of Toronto shelter-standards requirement, not a general public giveaway: City-funded emergency shelters, 24-hour respite sites, and 24-hour women's drop-ins must provide free pads and tampons at admission (within 12 hours) and upon request for the rest of a client's stay. toronto.ca — Directive 2019-02 Who it's for: clients of City-administered/funded emergency shelters, 24-hour respites, and 24-hour women's drop-ins, Toronto — not a walk-in-off-the-street program on its own. If you need a shelter or respite bed tonight, see Guide 01 In Crisis Now.

The Period Purse A Canadian charity that supplies free menstrual products to partner shelters, food banks, health centres and schools — it does not distribute directly to individuals. If you need products yourself, check your local library or community centre first, or use the Period Pin map to find a nearby free-product location. theperiodpurse.com — Find Free Period Products Who it's for: anyone in Canada, via a Community Partner organization or the Period Pin map (periodpin.ca) — not a direct-to-individual distributor.

Hands-on care nobody covers — feet, massage, and more

Supervised student clinics below are real, licensed-program training clinics — not a lesser option, but expect a longer appointment and a student practitioner working under supervision, which the row itself flags where it says so.

Michener Institute Chiropody Clinic (UHN) Foot care — ingrown nails, diabetic wound care, orthotics assessment and more — from supervised Chiropody-program students, $30/appointment (as of January 1, 2025). Not covered by OHIP; may be covered by extended health insurance. michener.ca — chiropody clinic Who it's for: anyone, Toronto. Call 416-596-3108 to book (phone only, no email booking); a family-doctor referral can be faxed to 416-596-3183 but isn't required. 222 St. Patrick St., 3rd Floor.

Sutherland-Chan Student Massage Teaching Clinic Full-body relaxation massage (Term 2 students) or treatment-focused massage for more complex presentations (Term 3/4 students), reported at roughly half the price of a licensed RMT — the school's own site confirms the clinic is open, but keeps exact current pricing on a separate booking page this lane still couldn't independently read. 15 Gervais Dr, Suite 308. sutherland-chan.com/teaching-clinic Who it's for: anyone, Toronto. Call 416-924-1107 ext. 10 first — reception will ask about your needs and send a required health-history screening form before your appointment is confirmed; call to confirm current rates.

Royal Canadian College of Massage Therapy (RCC) Student Clinic Supervised RMT-student massage therapy at $48/session ($37 senior; 10-session packages available), plus a limited "Community Massage" option at $25/session (Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays, phone/email booking only — not bookable online). No insurance receipts provided for student treatments. rccmassage.com/our-clinic/student-clinic Who it's for: anyone, Toronto. Call 416-447-7687 to book (or book the standard student clinic online); 1446 Don Mills Rd, Unit 240.

CCNM Robert Schad Naturopathic Clinic (Student Clinic) Supervised naturopathic care from student interns at reduced rates — $48 adult / $37 senior (65+) or pediatric (under 18) / $20 full-time student — with a further $20 Accessible Care Program rate for those who qualify on financial need (call ahead for pre-approval and bring financial documentation). ccnmclinics.ca/schad-clinic/rates Who it's for: anyone, Toronto; lower rates for seniors, children, students, and financial-need applicants. Call (416) 498-9763 to book; 1255 Sheppard Ave E.

OCTCM Teaching Clinic (acupuncture / Traditional Chinese Medicine) Acupuncture and TCM treatments from supervised acupuncture-diploma students: $10 for the consultation and diagnosis, then $30/session for acupuncture treatment — the same price at both the Toronto and Markham teaching clinics, confirmed on the school's own site; herbal medicine is priced separately by prescription. Toronto location: 283 Spadina Ave, 3rd Fl (SE corner of Dundas & Spadina). octcm.janeapp.com Who it's for: anyone, Toronto or Markham. Book online at the link above, or call 416-901-8818 (Toronto) / 905-477-8855 (Markham).

Honest gap: no dedicated low-cost or student-clinic physiotherapy row exists in the atlas — a reader specifically looking for cheap physiotherapy won't find a match in this guide.

Getting understood — free medical interpretation

UHN Free Medical Interpretation Services Qualified medical interpreters at no charge in 180+ languages — in person for long appointments, by phone for short/follow-up visits — automatically arranged once your preferred language is on file, no need to arrange in advance. Covers ASL, Cantonese, Mandarin, Portuguese, Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean, Italian and many more. Document translation (as opposed to spoken interpretation) is not free — UHN refers patients to a paid third-party agency for that. uhn.ca — language services Who it's for: anyone receiving care at UHN hospitals, Toronto. No documents required — ask your care team to note your preferred language. The same free-interpreter model exists at other Toronto hospital networks (Scarborough Health Network, Sunnybrook, Michael Garron Hospital), but only UHN's page was independently confirmed for this guide.

Find out what you're already covered for

ODSP Extended/Transitional Health Benefit Continued drug, dental, vision, medical-supply and transportation coverage for people who leave ODSP because their income rose (job, CPP, OAS) — the Extended benefit applies if you have high ongoing health costs, the Transitional benefit if you're leaving ODSP for paid work without equivalent employer coverage. Children/spouse 17 and under keep Healthy Smiles Ontario dental regardless. ontario.ca — ODSP health and disability benefits Who it's for: people who recently left ODSP, Ontario. Requires proof of income; ask your former ODSP office.

Ontario Benefits & Program Finder Anonymous online questionnaire (2–5 minutes) that screens for Ontario government benefits, programs and tax credits you may be eligible for — including legal aid, dental care, health services, housing, education and childcare. Results are informational only and don't determine actual eligibility. ontario.ca — find benefits and programs Who it's for: anyone, Ontario. Free, anonymous, no data stored.

Benefits Finder (Government of Canada) Free anonymous online questionnaire that screens for federal benefits and programs you may qualify for (157+ possible results) across retirement, disability, health/dental, jobs, housing, family and more, with links out to Ontario's own programs. Screening only — doesn't determine actual eligibility. canada.ca — benefits finder Who it's for: anyone, Canada-wide. Free, anonymous, no data stored.

Gaps in the atlas, honestly

Things a reader would reasonably look for in a guide like this and not find here, because no ACTIVE row supports them yet:
