Local groups worried about what provincial budget could mean
Medicine Hat, AB – In an average year, the Redcliff Public Library relies heavily on the $30,000 they receive annually from the provincial government.
With just a few months left before the calendar turns to 2020, they’ve only seen half of that.
“The fact is, we don’t have that money in our bank account. So we still have utilities, insurance, fees for running the photocopier. All of that takes money. So without having the money in our bank account this late in the year, you have to pull from somewhere. And be prepared,” said library manager Tracy Weinrauch.
