To all:- When your elected Member of Parliament is in his/her riding, we hope YOU will plan to visit YOUR Member - even if just to introduce yourself. Above all, you WOULD like to know any census thoughts. Go to <http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census> Check to see if YOUR Member of Parliament has a pretty GOLD tick mark (means YES), a RED "X" that means NO, or a BLUE QUESTION MARK. The blue question mark means he/she is undecided OR did not care enough to answer your letter. Your Member of Parliament works at your expense -- and for you --should he/she be in possession of a BLUE X, plan to visit! Prepare a letter as if you would be mailing it, complete with name of riding and any title. Either call the riding office to see when your MP is in the office -- or take a chance. By putting the letter (in an envelope) into his/her hand, preferably in front of witnesses, there will be no question the letter was not received. Above all, you would like to query your Member's view re census records release. Let us know of any happy outcome -- and should you receive a reply, we do not need the whole letter, just the part that tells YES, NO or otherwise. Gordon Watts is Keeper of the Scoreboard and needs this information (before any election). [The Scoreboard is out of date -- we need YOUR help!] A letter can be typed on a computer (save to disk), or by hand but let your Member of Parliament know YOU expect a positive response when there is mention of census release, also Access to Information Act, Bill C-206. Should you prefer to mail your letter, postage is FREE Name & Riding / House of Commons / Parliament Buildings / Ottawa, Ontario KIA OA6. Happy writing!!! Keep the petitions coming!!! Muriel M.
