The following was sent to BLUE MPs -- Raymond Chan, Ken Dryden, Diane Finley, Jim Karygiannis, David McGuinty, Yasmin Ratansi, Mario Silva, Lui Temelkovski, Borys Wrzesnewskyj, Todd Russell, John Efford, Bill Matthews ============== To all:- I have listed many of the Members of Parliament, some of whom are newcomers, voted in by constituents to represent them in Ottawa. The ones listed do not include the many from Quebec. It seems that voters have long memories -- this applies mainly to first time MPs -- especially family researchers. Bill S-18 is listed on the Projected Order of Business for June 20, tomorrow, when Third Reading is supposed to take place. We do not know when the Vote will take place, but all members of the Canada Census Committee will be tuned in to CPAC tomorrow. Many of us listened to the committee reports and were greatly enlightened as to the way committee members thought about Bill S-18, An Act to amend the Statistics Act. A quick email to me in the morning will change the numbers on the scoreboard for Members of Parliament from 214 out of 308 -- http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/Index6.htm Do I need a long detailed message? Believe it or not, several Members of Parliament have simply answered with one word -- YES -- that is sufficient as Gordon Watts and I know you. Let's raise the 214 just a bit higher -- we will be watching to see if any of those in the 214 vote NAY instead of YEA. Please remember -- if you have asked, many constituents are interested in family history -- to see who belongs to whom. Muriel M.
