In the case of accident victims, the blood test would require judicial approval in the form of a telephone warrant. E yan ding physi could ide the judge if the suspect was considered to be unable to give the sample, the commission says. Those are among 16 recommendations made today in the Commons by Justice Minister Mark MacGuigan. Although there are arguments that some of the recom- mendations may violate the federal-Charter of Rights, the ission said that the of the problem caused by drinking drivers, and in particular chronic offenders, in this country — we do not find (such arguments) convincing.” . At present, only breath tests are legal under federal laws and that poses two major problems: what to do when the suspect is or suffering from i ‘y problems or mouth injuries, and detection of drugs other than alcohol. PROVINCES ACT The British Columbia government passed a law -this fall permitting doctors to take blood samples without consent from impaired driving suspects and Alberta and Ontario are considering similar action. The Criminal Code provision allowing breathalyzer tests should be ined, says the is report entitled Investigative Tests — Alcohol, Drugs and Driving Offences. Blood tests would allow police officers to detect’ drugs other than alcohol, and the provisions would also cover boat operators and pilots, says the report. Police officers would also be required to warn suspects that refusal to comply could result in a penalty as severe as those contained in the Criminal Code for impaired driving. “We recognize that to some degree new provisions for blood tests are intrusive, and it is for this reason we have built into our r ions a series of safe ” says commissioner Joe Maingot, one of the authors of the report. Besides the safeguard for accident victims, the commission recommends that where a person has been asked to take a breathalyzer test, he would also be allowed to demand a blood test be taken. 365-3388 ALL SERVICE ALL REPAIR Castlegar Plumbing & Heating Ltd. 1008 Columbia Ave. HOME APPLIANCE REPAIR LTD. © Big jobs or small jobs Ph. 368-5911 ‘= BOBCAT GON SERVICES © Septic tank installation - * Back-hoe work 365-3015 Whether your name starts with A or M, or X, Yor Z You' Il find Business Directory’ advertising pays. + PHONE 365-5210 ee 412 Beresford Avo.

The city’s annual business license report shows that 418 licenses were issued this year — up 15 licenses z over 1982. This year 94 new licenses were issued. However, 78 businesses can- celled their licenses. That compares to 1982 when 186 businesses cancelled their licenses and only 68 new businesses started up for a net decrease of 68. A spokesman for the licensing de- partment cautioned that not all new business licenses are issued to people opening new stores.

He said some of the 101 inmates involved received minor cuts in the riot, which started about 6:30 p.m. PST. However, no tear gas was used and tactical squads which had been standing by for hours at the prison were not needed. For the final 8% hours, guards trained fire hoses through .windows broken by the inmates, drenching inmates in the five-degree Celsius weather. < 4 The riot started shortly after dinner when prisoners refused to return :to their cells and set out on a furniture: smashing rampage that brought police, and had been by the rebels. “The inmates started to refuse to be locked up. They headed towards the fire doors at the end of each landing and started to break through them.” Because of fire protection and safety installations at the provincial institu- tion, some prisoners had been moved from the east to the west wing and “we expect some of the inmates did not like that,” Harrison said.

Attorney General Brian Smith said today in Victoria that the riot was touched off by overcrowding, and the government's plans to replace the jail have been delayed by restraint.
