They will work with family doctors from Fort Nelson at the north end of the province to Oliver in the south, from Fernie in the east to Prince Rupert on the Coast. While working with the family physicians, ithe atudent doctors receive between $600 and $700 a month from the provincial government to make up for the money the students would have earned during the perlod to help finance their next year at medical school.’ The program is organized by UBC's new Department of Family Practice.

Lea said the government is instead subsidizing .passenger service - which people living ir the north coast are not concerned ‘about, “‘They are concerned about the everyday part of living-going down to the . Brocery store or any retail store and having to pay up to 4) percent and 50 percent higher prices for every item they buy. This has been the cage ever since the province . took over responsibility for coastal shipping.” - Lea sald Socred Premier” Bill Bennett has ordered his ministers not ‘to subsidize freight even though he signed an agreement with Canada saying that. they would subsidize freight.” He charged that the premier ’ would net “even stip out of - Victoria and go out and talk to those people and ask them what kind of service they need ” . ‘ Lea paid he had asked Conservation Minister Sam - Bawlf, who is responsible for B.C. Ferries, why the Socred government is not living up to lis agreement with Ottawa and was told: ‘Because we don't want to interfere with the private enterprise people ; who are ieft on the coast.” Commented Lea: “The private enterprise people are few in number and sadly _ lacking in ability to supply the needs of the coast, and the Social Credit govern- merit’ will not put in the service they said they would because they don’t want to goin and hurt anybody who may be in free enterprise. Don't the people matter more? Don't the people come first in the priority of this government?"

The aim of the program is to attract more students into practising in smaller cen- tres, and so far its working. An informal survey of students last year indicated that a large number of them planned to practice as family physicians in smaller communities throughout the province, and many said their exposure to working in Tural settings during their second year was what made them decide. As in many provinces, there is a greater number of doctors per capita in the larger cities of B.C. than in . smaller centres. B.C, has a shortage of doctors in smaller cities and towns. Medical educators have thought that part of the reason for the shortage might be because medical ‘students receive much of their training in sophisticated hospitals in large cities where highly- trained specialists are heated. So the second-year rural progrdm was set up to ex- pose students to medicine practised in a different petting.
