    1. [ALBERTA] Accessing the Letter of Protest for Census 2001
    2. Gordon A. WATTS
    3. Greetings All. In previous postings I have made mention of a Letter of Protest that we suggest be enclosed with your completed Census 2001 forms. It has been announced in my column in the newly released Global Gazette that this letter is downloadable from the Post 1901 Census Project website. In fact, the Letter of Protest is on the website, and is downloadable. There is no problem with the French language pages. However, on the English language pages, at this time there is a problem linking from the main page to the letter page. The new main page showing the link to the page with the Letter of Protest is not coming up, and an earlier main page is still there. I hope that this will be remedied shortly after the weekend. In the meantime, until this problem is remedied, the Letter of Protest page may be accessed directly at the following URL http://globalgenalogy.com/Census/Protest.htm Note the capitalized letters in the URL. These are necessary, or the link will not work. The downloadable letter, as with the Census petitions, is in Adobe Acrobat PDF format and requires the free downloadable Reader to access it. Some have reported problems opening up the petitions. This problem may be due to use of an earlier version of the Reader than the files were created with. The petitions and the Letter of Protest were developed with Version 4.0 of Adobe Acrobat. If you have problems opening the files, and are using an earlier version of the Reader, please download and try the latest version from http://www.adobe.com/ . Happy Hunting. Gordon A.
