To all:- If recipients have mail lists -- the following may be forwarded Yesterday's mail brought three interesting envelopes, all containing signatures on petitions -- the mail system must be great -- one envelope was not sealed! BONNIE in Berrier Springs, MI sent three signatures THERESE from Frisco, Texas sent three signatures and yes, Therese -- three signatures do help! Therese is one of our newest committee members. Arnold from Restoule, ON forwarded 32 signatures for the Senate -- collected at North Bay, ON. I am requesting ALL Canada Census Committee Members make at least ONE effort, regardless of where you live, to obtain signatures on the following:- CANADA -- House of Commons and Senate [both may be signed] OTHER COUNTRIES -- Non Resident Download from http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/index.htm/ or http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/index-f.htm There will be a new petition in the fall -- all will be notified and the signatures on petitions, no matter how few, will provide backing for the desire of release of post-1901 census records, the 1911 is the present one for which we are seeking release. Parliament will start October 4 -- I would enjoy receiving petitions from ALL committee members before that date. Should one might be collecting signatures on both House of Commons and Senate, you may mail to either Gordon Watts or to myself -- our addresses are at above URL and we exchange petitions -- I keep the Senate and Non-Resident. Subscribers to the CCC mail list are invited to smother Gordon and myself with signatures on petitions -- we are doing our share -- but need help! Everyone has a library, many have LSD centres, genealogical societies, historical societies, some have TEENAGERS who might need a Social Science project in school -- the information may be copied if credit is given. [My grandson is collecting signatures at McMaster University]. Hoping to hear from all!!! Muriel M.
