More than 1,500 were reported in the first half of this year. Breyer-Stewart, CBC News, London. With a potential Gaza ceasefire deal on the line, the White House says the U.S. President needs to hear from Hamas soon.

spokesperson Caroline Levitt says Donald Trump gave the militant group a four-day deadline to accept his plan. It's a red line that the president of the United States is going to have to draw, and I'm confident that he will. This is an acceptable plan, and we hope and we expect Hamas should accept this plan so we can move forward with a more peaceful and prosperous Middle East.

That means they can charge more than what Ottawa will cover. And that dollar amount can vary greatly. But Dr. Bruce Ward with the Canadian Dental Association says balance billing is one of the reasons why nearly all dental clinics are now accepting patients through the program. To restrict the amount that dentists can charge for any given procedure would make things more difficult for the dental offices. Marina von Stackleberg, CBC News, Ottawa.
