To all: Many of us, of varying ages, attempt to create our personal family history, using mainly census records, plus church and other records: school, deeds, wills, probate, etc. UNLESS WE ARE SUCCESSFUL IN OBTAINING RELEASE OF POST-1901 CENSUS RECORDS, THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER CENSUS TO VIEW The above sounds harsh -- but it is true!! The 1901 Census COULD be our last census records for Canada. Canadians and Non-Canadians are requested to help us in this Census Fight!! In the House of Commons, only petitions from Canadians are accepted, and letters must be signed personally. E-Mails MIGHT be more acceptable if the present Bill C-6 is passed. (Deals with Electronic Messaging) In the Senate of Canada, BOTH Canadians and Non-Canadians are invited to contribute letters to Senator Lorna Milne (Peel County, Ontario) and E-mails are welcome if directed to her. The MENU of PETITIONS includes: English & French Language for House of Commons (Canadians only) English & French Language for Senate of Canada (Canadians only) Non-Canadian Petition in English Looking forward to your help!! We post by attachment or petitions are downloadable <http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census/index.htm> I still accept ALL Letters and E-mails, print them and mail. Muriel M.
