Greetings All. It seems that rather than downloading and collecting signatures on our NEW petitions, some people are still using the OLD ones. Please download and use the NEW petitions. The OLD petitions were worded in general terms and did not accomplish our goal. The NEW petitions are worded in very specific terms and leave no doubt whatsoever as to what we seek. It gives the wording of a single clause to be added to the Statistics Act that would ensure both the transfer of Historic Census records to the care and control of the National Archivist, and continued public access to all Historic Census records 92 years after collection. The suggested clause to be added to the Statistics Act has none of the conditions or restrictions that Bill S-13 had. Like Bill S-13, the OLD petitions are dead. Please download and use the NEW petitions when gathering signatures. As of today, there are two lines for the collectors of signatures to sign -- please do not write any other place on petitions unless the space is designated for a signature, name of country, or collector(s) of signatures. Remember, STREET addresses are not needed - City, Province, Postal Code. Thank you all for your support. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.
