'I will be living a life in silence': Sask. teen speaking out against cuts to hearing aid program


Parents are outraged over the Saskatchewan government's axing of the 44-year-old Hearing Aid Plan, and they aren't the only ones. If the cuts to the Hearing Aid Plan aren't reversed, Mary-Jayne's parents say they may not be able to afford 'extras' like soccer registration fees. Under the public Hearing Aid Plan, parents paid roughly $1,000 for hearing aids. The Hearing Aid Plan will end July 1, and there will also be cuts to audiology staff. Mary-Jayne Morris and her family are upset about the axing of the Saskatchewan Hearing Aid Plan announced in last month's budget.
