To all:- Mr. Peter Adams, MP, Peterborough, Ontario forwarded an extremely interesting but bery long letter about the Government Caucus on Post-Secondary Education and Research. I will forward the complete letter to anyone requesting it -- Gordon Watts sent the following to me re http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census/index6.htm Contact me if you desire the complete letter -- only 32K -- very interesting. Muriel M. Davidson <davidson3542@home.com> Canadian Census Committee ================================ I have given Peter Adams a gold tick and put the following in his correspondence log. 12/08/1999 - extract from a letter sent to Hon. Paul Martin, Minister of Finance, by MP Peter Adams, acting as Chair/President of the Government Caucus on Post Secondary Education and Research. While it is known that at least one member of this caucus does not favour allowing access to Post 1901 Census it is presumed that MP Peter Adams, by including the following statement in the letter, does. "Another item, not strictly a budgetary matter, affects the social sciences. You should know that our Caucus supports the RELEASE OF POST-1901 CENSUS DATA in the same fashion that earlier census material was released. At stake for all Canadians is a true understanding of ourselves as a nation." Received from Gordon Watts <gordon_watts@telus.net>
