To all:- Many will wonder what in the world I am talking about -- but this must be OUR aim during the summer recess of Parliament. There are 301 Members of Parliament, but only 156 have actually stated support of Post-1901 census records release. Do not worry about the ones showing a red X -- some have changed their respective minds and we have thanked them. Quebec, Ontario and Newfoundland, in that order, need LESS in the NOT HEARD FROM line! I have written to all in Ontario, Don Tate is writing to those in Newfoundland -- We have committee members in Quebec -- but others with Quebec roots are invited -- I would like to see the number 25 instead of 52. WHY? Should Members of Parliament ever have to vote on census release, we need more on the SUPPORT side -- same with Senators. Above all, check to see if YOUR MP or Senator is supportive and pop along to the annual barbecue or whatever (paid for with your tax-dollars), and you might obtain his/her support. The summer recess continues until September 18, 2002 -- so pack your petitions wherever you travel. I will be saving these until early in September before tabulating -- please add e-mail address of sender. Let's get to work -- we need to be ready for release of S-12 Sept. 30. Muriel M.
