Boards members are meeting with as many candidates as possible to get their message out that seniors issues need to be taken seriously. The ten point vision speaks to issues that affect seniors on a daily basis. Although the candidate did not commit to any of the points, but did say that she could support the Coalition position.
Sherry Wilson said she supported the ability to pay concept, which is a concern if the Progressive Conservative form government, they may be want to implement the liquid assets system as opposed to the single entry of daily fees. The Coalition will not stand by to allow this to happen, we need to put the fire out before it starts says Cassista.
Cecile Cassista, shared the difficulties New Brunswickers experience under the Lord government when all liquid assets were considered. Cassista stated that the Coalition was formed in 2004 to lobby the government for change. The change came about as a result of a change in government in 2006.
