EDITOR:

A few things I would like to see. The provincial and federal governments work together and pay the expenses for student doctors and nurses providing they stay on the Island. Also, I would like to see Bush Dumville return his severance package and start a campaign to do away with this altogether. Good work, Bush.

Eric McCarthy,

Summerside
