Jan. 4, 2013: Make Poverty History Manitoba rallied at the Manitoba Legislature today to demand that the provincial government increase the rental allowance that is provided to recipients of provincial Employment and Income Assistance (EIA). EIA recipients are provided with a rental allowance that has increased only slightly over the past two decades. During that same period, rents have gone up by 60 to 70%.
Make Poverty History Manitoba is asking the Province to increase the rental allowance to 75% of median market rent, a move the provincial government estimates would cost approximately $18.5 million annually.
Kirsten Bernas, of Make Poverty History Manitoba, explains why this increase is long overdue.
