Concerns Over Financial Impact Of New Drug Plan

The province’s new drug plan causing some concern at two very different organisations but for the same reason………How much extra will be paid out.

Jean-Claude Basque of the Common Front For Social Justice tells CHSJ News the monthly premiums which range from 67 to 167 dollars might turn out to be a financial burden for those who don’t earn all that much to begin with.

The Saint John Region Chamber of Commerce is worried about a new payroll tax coming into effect to help pay for the drug plan at a time when small and medium sized businesses in the province are having a tough go of it.
