Goyer's comments followed a heated question period in Ihe Commons in which MPs demanded guarantees that their telephone calls are not being monitored and turned finally to Speaker Lucien Lam-ourcux to ask for an investigation. Lamoureux, indicated he will look into the matter "in view of the fact that it is one of interest to honorable members on both sides of the House." Conservative House leader G. W.

Baldwin requested a guarantee that the KCMP or other government agencies are not employing electronic devices to keep tabs on MPs in Ihe performance of their parliamentary duties. "Of course not," Goyer replied. Outside Ihe Commons, he said later the assurance applied strictly to MPs in their role as elected officials.

SPEC. "I think the record speaks for itself," said Bisscll. "Out of the 1,550 calls for assistance, we have been successful in 1,052 eases." But McLean was unimpressed by the record. "Most of those calls are to pick up sick people on the ground," he said. "In the important field of sea rescue, the base isn't able to do Ihe job." He added: "The base is already 95 per cent ready will) Ihe necessary equipment, so why cut down on the last five per cent effort needed to get into Ihe air." Commenting on the accident, McLean said: "It was not midnight, if was not winter and visibility was excellent.

Yet they took all that time to get in the air." Ho added; "There is no sense in calling them air-sea rescue. You might as well call them a salvage unit." McLean said he will attend the inquiry, and added (hat "I shall be very interested to hear a formal explanation Iry Comox." Trans-Mountain Air Services president Don Brailb-waite charged the rescue unit at Comox was secretive about rescue operations. He also accused Ihe rescue unit of glory seeking. "It's all a big lop secret as far as Ihcy are concerned when Trails-Mountain has tried to co-ordinate previous rescue attempts will) search and Brailhwaife said, He said the Comox unit does not notify other pilots who really know Uie area. "I've had the relative call us up before Ihey do," he said.

"They even followed our planes around trying to find the missing Maj. Bisscll said Brailli-waiie's comments were "a prctly wild statement." "People tend to gel. quite emotional shout Ihis sort of thing, particularly when there is a loss of life," said Bisscll. "If people feel wo are doing something wrong they should lodge a formal complaint.
