Cuts to bus passes for methadone patients could lead to some serious consequences -- that from Social Development critic Bernard LeBlanc.
The Alward government making changes to bus passes used by patients so they can reach treatment centres -- they will now only have access to the pass for 18 months rather than the duration of the treatment. Those already pass the 18 month mark will see their pass expire after May 1st.
LeBlanc says reducing access to transportation could do serious harm to the course of their treatment and the province is attacking vulnerable New Brunswickers.
