Sail on Nova Scotia Radio - http://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/bryanfkeddy/SONS.html The SONS radio was set up as a pre-celebration of 2003 -- when people like me celebrate the founding of Lunenburg in 1753. We expect St.John's Anglican Church to be rebuilt by then, after all this is only the beginning of 2002! Also, 2003 is the year the 1911 Canadian census is supposed to be released -- if approval is granted. Many are working very hard -- pulling together from coast-to-coast-to-coast with a great deal of information about Town Hall meetings, Compromise Solution (no solution!) and Focus Groups from Gordon Watts. Guy Lombardo's "I'm My Own Grandpa" -- could be a great song as a theme song for census release!!!! This time it is acknowledging the safe passage of Senator Lorna Milne's Bill S-12 through the Committee -- it is now in Third Reading status, to be brought back about middle of February, 2002. Murray Calder will have his great ONE hour of fame about March -- just in time for S-12 to come to House of Commons. Bryan Keddy is the one who handles my personal home page and I heard the words of Farewell to Nova Scotia on SONS today http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~downhome/ we share the following site as well [the Canadian flag logo] http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Farm/7843/poll.html Gordon and I need full mail-boxes -- it does not matter if you send both House of Commons and Senate petitions to me -- I re-mail, as we do not want Murray Calder to be empty-handed when he has the ONE hour of debate allowed by law. Please make certain Senator Lorna Milne has a truckload when she presents her Third Reading -- I can imagine the publicity if her husband has to take the big vehicle he is refinishing to pull the load up Parliament Hill -- do not worry, Ross would do it! The Petition Menu includes English & French Canadian, Non-Resident http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/Petition.htm Do we need these -- take a peek at the scoreboards -- no YES letters http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/Index6.htm http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/Senscore1.htm Read the letters on the private message boards -- when you become angry (as I often do) the message board is at the right side!!! If YOU want the census records released -- NOW is the time we need YOUR help -- the SONS Radio will have a small recording, we hope, from Lorna Milne -- who is offering a big thank-you to anyone who is able to put "I'm My Own Grandpa" on a family group sheet!!! Listen for Ron Farquhar -- my brother -- he is taping for Bryan at present, and some of his songs are original -- might even have Dartmouth SPEBS! We need the support NOW -- in their hands by February 14 and after! Muriel M. Davidson muriel.davidson@rogers.com Co-Chair, Canada Census Committee 25 Crestview Avenue, rampton, ON L6W 2R8
