Greetings All. My thanks to Ian Holmes, president of the Alberta Genealogical Society for sending me scans of an article by Duncan Thorne that appeared on page A7 the Edmonton Journal of Sunday 27 January 2002. This is an excellent article of about 1/2 page and makes mention of a number of people that have been active in our campaign to regain access to Historic Census -- Lucy McRae, Ian Holmes and Bill Waiser. For a change, this article does not just quote representatives of StatCan and repeat their non-existant 'promise'. It presents our side of the issue and mentions our upcoming Court action to obtain a writ of mandamus to obtain release of the 1906 Census records. All in all, I would consider it to be a well balanced article. I have not as yet been able to locate the article on the website of the Edmonton Journal, but hope that it will be placed online. We would like to see more articles of this caliber. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.
