There were a lot of circles - Fort St. John, Prince George, Williams Lake, Kamloops, Vernon, Creston and Kimberley in the Kootenays, Duncan and Nanaimo on Vancouver Island just to name a few. "it'S a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it" The only place there wasn't a circle was northwestern B.C. and that made Mangnus mad.

See you soon.- Kevin Since her husband's kidneys failed and he was sent to Prince George, Mangnus said she's learned a lot about the disease. But the most important thing she has learned is that there are a lot of people like Chuck who have had their lives disrupted because there is no northwestern dialysis ' service. "Just look at the map," said Mangnus. "Where else would we move to?" From front Action wanted to thaw freeze It means northwesterners have to move to an area where there is one. The proposal to locate a six-station dialysis unit in Terrace as a satellite to the main clinic in Prince George has been under development for years. Fort St. John in the northeast has had a satellite service to Prince George for some years. Planning for the clinic here accelerated about a year ago after the then-NDP government in Victoria accepted a needs assessment. That set the stage to determine construction, equipment and staffing costs. A never-used section of the second floor of Mills was tagged as the location for the unit. The detailed planning for the unit ran afoul of the nurses' work-to-rule campaign this spring and early summer and was only revived again in early fall. Another Terrace Health Watch member, Don Rit- chey, said he's convinced the unit would have been up and running by now had there been a regional health care authority with the power'to make decisions. Instead, community health councils have been at odds with each other whenever a decision has to be made, he said. ,'It all simply comes back to that," said Ritchey. He said the need for a kidney dialysis unit in the northwest goes beyond any jealousies between health (• • care councils. "We don't care where it goes," Ritchey added. "It should be in our geographic region." GM GOODWRENCH New penalties PRE-WINTER INSPECTION,

West Fraser's penalty was the lowest of the six, which were averaged together to produce the 12.57 per cent penalty that will apply to all other producers. The dumping penalties, which the U.S. says are to punish Canadian mills for selling lumber to the U.S. below cost, comes on top of the 19.3 per cent counter- vail duty imposed in August. The softwood lumber battle has unfolded since the expiry last March of the Canada-U.S. Softwood Lumber Agreement. It set quotas, or limits on the amounts of lumber companies could ship south without tariffs. Most producers are now paying a combined tariff of close to 32 per cent. i _w - - i Forest minister Mike de Jong said the U,S. move is a major setback to talks between the two countries to reach a new and hopefully long lasting deal on lumber MCEWANGM 635-4941 ! trade.

The minister said the U.S. government is doing a "hatchet job" on Canada, "God, with friends like this...," de Jong told reporters, not completing the sentence. "It is frustrating." Skeena Liberal MLA Roger Harris said tile new rate had little to do with American claims that Canadian wood is subsidized and everything to do with wanting to freeze out competitors to American producers.

INSIDE COMMUNITY EVENTS B2 0i II M IM 'i I I U N I T I

L Around Town Stamp honours Legion ON NOV. 11, Canadians remember the sacri- fices made by our Armed Forces in wars, con- flicts, and peace keeping missions. This year, Canada Post is issuing a comme- morative stamp honouring the Royal Canadian Legion. The 47-cent Royal Canadian Legion stamp will be available for sale after Remembrance Day. And here in Terrace, the main post office invites the community to come take part in celebrations for the stamp's issue. That takes place next Wednesday, Nov. 14 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Profiles in courage and sacrifice B.C.'S KNOWLEDGE Network TV channel broadcasts a range of special Remembrance Day programming all this week and on Nov. 11. A Soldier's Voice, airing tonight at 8 p.m., is a documentary about 11 Second World War veterans and their reflections on life on the battlefield, and the lasting effects of war. That's followed by Behhzd Enemy Lines at 9 p.m. and Unwanted Soldiers at 10 p.m., two do- cumentaries on the role Canadian secret agents played during the Second World War. Tomorrow night's The War Brides looks at the stories of some of the 48,000 European and British women who married Canadians during the 1940s and came here to start new lives after the war. It airs at 8 p.m. A Time For Courage, the story of one of four Canadian women who ferried planes overseas, airs at 9 p.m. BROTHERS IN ARMS: Bill and Murray Kennedy in 1945.

ZIMMERMAN 1 WHEN IT comes to rep hockey there's no doubt that having experienced players return Ill for a second season is a distinct advantage. And for the Inland Kenworth Bantam rep team in Terrace, returning players is something they're not short on. With seven players back on the roster this year, coach John Amos is confident that the team is in for a solid season of hockey. SKEENA ANGLER "Our biggest asset is our two returning goalies," Amos said. ROB BROWN Brad Norwood and Tyson Tugwell are both only 15 years old but they each stand six feet Imagery tall.
