To The Rt. Hon. Paul Martin, Prime Minister of Canada Congratulations on your election in your riding. We sincerely hope you will be in agreement with the following. Canadians, assisted by people of other countries, have been working since March 1999 for the release of the 1911 census records, which were scheduled to have been released June 1, 2003. The records were enumerated on March 1, 1911 -- a long time ago, when we know United States has access to the 1930 census records of their country. Census records are not only necessary when searching for family members, but these were also the last records enumerated before World War One. To date we have both 1901 and 1906 online, the latter of three provinces http://automatedgenealogy.com/ If you check you will notice only basic details are given - no private data. There is a second page on microfiche, but this only gives Nationality, Place of Birth, Religion, Occupation -- PRIVACY is not invaded. The Canada Census Committee have a scoreboard -- you are on http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/Score4.htm#PQ At present we do not have an existing census release bill, but are collecting petitions -- see http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/ There is a great deal of information there -- plus the Canada Census committee http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~downhome/committee.html [Several changes will be made on this page] Sincerely hope you will exchange the UNDECIDED Green symbol for a Gold tick meaning YES. If not, we request you give us your reasons - 92 years is long enough. The Canada Census Committee members request you to instruct Dr. Ivan P, Fellegi to transfer the Canadian census records automatically to our National Archives -- at present, only you, as Prime Minister, can do this -- or replace him with another.
