Evacuees from the flooded-out Little Saskatchewan First Nation in Manitoba say they have been left scrambling after being told, in a letter, their financial assistance would be drastically cut.
On Wednesday they protested the cuts outside the Manitoba legislature.
The province says they are moving into a long-term recovery phase and that means cuts to evacuees’ financial assistance.
Adults will be reduced from $23 a day to $4. Children will also see a cut from $18 a day to $3.
Evacuees say that’s just not enough.
