Now that the holiday season is over, we’re moving into the heating season. And for many, it will be a struggle for the essentials. Nova Scotia’s Liberal Party is urging government to do more for those who have less. They’ve introduced a number of ideas that would help Nova Scotians throughout the affordability crisis including a bill to index income assistance to inflation and increase the thresholds for social assistance to allow more people to access funds. Leader Zach Churchill addresses those issues and the homelessness crisis that stretches from Yarmouth to Cape Breton.
