To all:- A large brown envelope received today contained not a Christmas card, but the FIRST Census Petition from the Province of Quebec, sent by the Montreal Jewish Genealogical Society. Many, many thanks!! I feel there will be many more from the Jewish community, and with that in mind, have started another file -- waiting for other petitions for company. Christine Joudrey has a link placed with the Jewish Genealogical Society web site -- if there are others requesting census links, please let us know. Wonder why I have opened a separate file? Senator Lorna Milne said she would present GROUP petitions -- the one received today could be the start of a Group Petition. When Senator Milne does this, she mentions a bit about the history -- so I may be requesting a brief history in time. To obtain a petition, in either language, in PDF format, please go to http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census/petition.htm Please do NOT re-number the pages that have 25 spaces!!! A person may sign both Senate and House of Commons petitions at the same time, if Canadian -- Non-Canadians sign for Senate only. Where are the other groups? Senator Milne is a member of Ontario Genealogical Society -- I am waiting for petitions. Keep my mail-box filled! Muriel M.
