Inhis 40 years of flying, Gourlay put in more than 15,000 hours. He was with PWA for 14 years, the other 26 years being spent in the military.

Gourlay said he made Castlegar his last flight be- cause he is taking up residence in the Slocan Valley, where his father-in-law resides.

As well, he said he loves flying into Castlegar.

“It's an interesting approach . . because of the hills,” he said. Often times, the flights have been quite intere- sting and challenging for Gourlay.

“He's an incredible pilot,” says Skillings, who recalls being ‘on’one of Gourlay’s flights coming into Castlegar.

IB B The Registered Nurses Association of B.C. has rec- ommended that the proposed Canada Health Act outlaw extra billing and user fees for essential health services.

But that doesn't mean nurses agree with ‘the rest of the p d Act, ig toan RNABC sp:

Mary Laing says the RNABC would | like, for in- stance, to see Ottawa modify the Health Act to give the provinces more control over health care.

Laing, RNABC director for the Kootenays and ’Thompson-Nicola ‘regions, is travelling throughout her

constituency to explain the Association's position on the proposed Health Act. She was in Castlegar Wednesday night to speak to 38 local nurses.

‘ “We believe in the concept of it (the Health Act),"! | Laing’ said in'an interview. “But we believe it doesn’t go "far enough.”

The federal government first proposed a new Health tin May, 1982 and is expected to table the Act in the louse of Commons next month.

The Act will replace three pieces of legislation that

Laing said the RNABC is against both user fees and " extra billing “because we feel it interferes with public

access to health care.”

She noted that revenue from user fees makes up only seven per cent of the government's health care revenue. But it:represents a much larger proportion of a pen- sioner’s income, she said.

‘ As well, she noted, “People are already paying for health care in that, one-half of their income tax goes to health care.”

Laing also stressed the fact that the new Health Act +o Will determine the country’s health care service for the pnext, decade, io “It's important for the public to know this Health Act «++. Sets up the system for the next 10 to 15 years,” she

said. 4

And she recommended that the public find out what the Act proposes and contact their MLA and MP to voice

their opinion.

, Laing said the RNABC agrees with the federal gov- ernment’s plan to include the five basic fundamentals of health care: accessi- bility and public administration.

She said the provinces should | be the ones to decide health care and not Ottawa, because the provinces, along with regional and local governments, know best what kind of health care is needed.

Health care needs may vary from province to province with different population sizes, cultural groups and geography, she said.

A key plank in the RNABC’s health care platform is that the focus of the country’s health care system needs to change.

Laing said the system now stresses /“illness.” The RNABC wants the system to stress “wellness.”

With that in mind, the RNABC has proposed that the federal government entrench in its new Act locally administered community health centres.

These health centres would be staffed by trained health workers such as doctors, nurses, auxiliaries and

in the seeking medical attention would go to these new community health centres first instead of doctors’ offices or the local hospital’s emergency department.

Acutely ill patients would still be referred to emergency or doctors for treatment, Laing stressed.

But she pointed out that 80 per cent of those who now go to emergency for care are not emergency cases.

“All these cases... could have been handled through the community health centres,” she said — and saved the provincial health care system money in the process.’

She noted that the centres are designed for chron- ically;and ill patients, while hospitals would

Police want

KAMBOOPS (CP) — RCMP ‘investigating the Johnson-Bentley murders have again asked the pro- bation officer in Clearwater,

to compile a list of all known ging

crimindls in the area.

Bob Moore, probation offi- cer for the North Thompson area, said Friday that police want a list of all the people he has dealt with, both adult and juvenile. .

“It will be‘quite a task,” he said ina telephone interview from Clearwater. The town has a population of 4,600.

Police at the Kamloops RCMP subdivision have said that the discovery Tuesday of the burned-out camper. truck belonging to George Bentley means their investi- gation now will be centred in the Clearwater area, 120 kil- ometres north of here.

The truck's charred wreck- age was found by two for- estry workers Tuesday in a bush area near Clearwater about 30 kilometres by log- road from where the badly-burned bodies of the Johnson and Bentley families were found in the Johnson car last year.

The victims were Bob and Jackie Johnson, their young daughters, Karen and Janet, of Kelowna, and George and Edith Bentley, Jackie's par- ents who lived in Port Coquitlam.

Moore said RCMP asked him to review all his tecords and provide information on offenders’ crimes and back- grounds,

1982. Moore said there would be “virtually nothing dif- ferent” in the new list be- cause he has only a small turnover in his cases. {

“I've been here for eight years and I'm in touch with all the characters of the area,” said Moore.

He said the last time he re- viewed his files he was un- able to pinpoint anyone as a

persons from the area.

“I don’t know,” said Moore. “I have mixed thinking on that. It may just have been a group passing through.”

RCMP have said that two French-speaking men, who were seen driving a truck similar to Bentley's into Eastern Canada shortly after the bodies were discovered, are still suspects.

Solidarity méets

VANCOUVER (CP) — More than 250 trade unions and community groups are meeting today to try to decide whether the Solidar- ity Coalition will become a permanent new feature of B.C.’s political landscape — at least: until the next elec- tion.
