United Conservatives promising 25 per cent seniors discount for some services

CALGARY – The United Conservative Party is promising to make life more affordable for seniors in Alberta.

Leader Danielle Smith says the help will include introducing a 25 per cent discount for seniors on personal registry services, camping fees and medical driving exams.

Smith says many seniors are living on fixed incomes and are struggling to cover monthly expenses.

She is blaming NDP leader Rachel Notley for higher costs related to her support of a federal carbon tax.
