Kootenay-West MLA not happy with MSP changes

Local MLA for Kootenay-West, Katrine Conroy, says the changes might not amount to any savings for families.

The changes come after MSP rates were hiked by 4% in Janurary.

Conroy points out there will be a $77 increase to those who are receiving disability assistance, but that could be canceled out with the cancelation of disability transit passes which will now need to be purchased.
