A new message is appearing on Parliament Hill when one is trying to send a message to a Member of Parliament. At first I thought something was wrong with my computer. The message is 452 - Too busy to accept mail right now, try again later. Muriel M. Davidson ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brown, Gord - M.P." <Brown.G@parl.gc.ca> To: "Muriel M. Davidson" <muriel_davidson@sympatico.ca> Sent: Wednesday, October 13, 2004 8:34 AM Subject: RE: I Have Been Waiting to Hear from You Muriel, Bill S-13 was not voted on in the last session. We expect a similar Bill will resurface in this session. Although the Senate passed bill S-13 there were some privacy and timing issues that delayed it in the House. Members, including those in my party, who had supported it initially, became concerned. As of today, those concerns have not yet been satisfactorily answered. I understand the desire to research census records. Unfortunately privacy regulations in place in Canada may interfere with access to certain information. I understand that my party's legal experts are studying the issue so that when it comes forward again we will be in a better position to make a recommendation. I will contact you again, as soon as I learn anything further about this Bill.

Subject: I Have Been Waiting to Hear from You Mr. Gordon Brown - MP -- Leeds-Grenville riding It has been mentioned to me that all Members of Parliament of both Conservative and NDP parties are in complete agreement for release of our 1911 Canadian census.
