Rural doctors dispute widens in Chetwynd talks

In week two of the Chetwynd doctors dispute, Health Minister Penny Priddy met northern physicians in Prince George without Chetwynd officials present. Local doctor Derek Barkhuizen criticized the ministry, noting a 1995 letter on recruitment and on call duties. Mayor Lasser accused the ministry of ignoring northern needs as BCMA negotiations stalled. A second meeting is planned for Friday March 13 with possible inclusion of Chetwynd.
