DSSAB voices concerns

The District Social Services Board is voicing their concerns about the Province's social assistance system.  The local organization says the system is broken and they have some ideas on how they could fix it.  They suggest calculating basic needs and shelter rates according to local market rates including basic telephone and transportation costs.  Meanwhile, Bill Bradica is the board's temporary CAO.  He's filling in for Melissa Harrison who is on medical leave.
