Greetings All. After being away from the house since early this morning I came home to an email message from the Office of Senator Lorna Milne. The purpose of the message was to advise that the Senate Committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology has tentatively scheduled hearings on Senator Milne's Bill S-12 for either 19 or 20 September 2001. Senator Milne has asked that I appear before the Committee to testify in support of Bill S-12. Bill S-12 is identical to MP Murray Calder's Bill C-312 and, if passed by the Senate and the House of Commons without significant change, would satisfy our concerns for public access to Post 1901 Census Records. It expressly authorizes the transfer of all census records from Statistics Canada to the National Archives of Canada for permanent safekeeping. It gives access to the records to genealogists and other researchers 92 years after the census, subject to a privacy right it creates that allows individuals to object to the disclosure of personal information in the census records. For those interested in reading it, there is a link to Bill S-12 provided on the 'Other Sites' page of the Post 1901 Census Project website located at the URL following my signature. Happy Hunting.

Hello I am trying to find either one of two books that are now out of print.

Books are: On The Trail of Big Bear and/or Blood Red The Sun both by William Bleasdell Cameron If I'm lucky enough for anyone to have a copy of either of these books, and wish to sell it, please contact me directly, off the list. Thank you Pat Ontario

Sorry guys! You just might all be stuck with this format as the list is, at this time, not moderated. This means that anyone can post messages to the list whether they belong to the list or not. The reason that I've left it unmoderated is because there are many very helpful people on the list who answer list messages from more than the one address that they are subscribed to the list with and I think that these people are very necessary to the list. Also it saves me a lot of computer time, not having to sub and unsub people from the list manually. Right now I am using this time to add Alberta information for genealogy researchers online, and I think this is also very necessary. I've tried removing the gateway without changing the moderation, hopefully this will work. If it doesn't I'll see if there is another option.

Hi I agree with Jay. New messages format is not user friendly.

Hello Gail, Cowley is indeed a few kilometres west of Pincher Creek, on the number 3 highway, which goes west from Lethbridge, Alberta, through to the west coast of British Columbia. I haven't been there for many years, but it is likely still a small ranching town in the foothills. If I can help further, write back.
