Manitoba did not officially become a province of Canada until 1905 - the first census should have been released in 1998, but the 1906 law cancelled all census records. Registrations of births, deaths and marriages became law in Canada in 1867. Muriel M. Davidson <Farquhar@netcom.ca> coralynn wrote: > > I just received an answer to a Death Certificate search.
