Dear Mr. Kramp: Yesterday, I received a letter from you in response to my email of October 13th. Many thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to reply. I was most pleased to read that you are in support of the preservation of our Post 1901 Historical Census. I have forwarded your reply to our Co-Chairmen so that they can record it on our site. You can monitor your response now by going to the following site: http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/Index6.htm You can also go to this same site and download petitions (House of Commons & Senate) if you wish to support this with a signature. Once again, thank you for your support, (Miss) Adele Turner North Vancouver, B C Below is a transcript of the letter I received from Mr. Kramp so that it can post it to our site and I quote: House of Commons Ottawa Suite 902, Justice Bldg Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6 Tel: (613) 992-5321 Fax: (613) 996-8652 krampd@parl.gc.ca October 15, 2004 Miss A.J.Turner Canada Census Committee Member-Save our Census #67 - 1947 Purcell Way North Vancouver, B.C. V7J 3H4 Dear Miss Turner: Thank you for your letter of October 13, 2004, expressing support for the release of post-1901 census records. I appreciate knowing your views on this issue and am please to be given the opportunity of providing you our position. I, along with my Conservative colleagues, support the preservation of census records and the subsequent transfer of these records to the National Archives for public release. We believe that keeping the records confidential for the historical 92-year period is an adequate length of time, and that this is generally consistent with the practice in Britain and the United Stats, where records are kept confidential for 100 and 72 years respectively. Thank you again for writing and if I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours sincerely, (signature: Daryl Kramp) Daryl Kramp,M.P.

Adele I wrote to Daryl Kramp over 6 weeks ago. I am still waiting for his answer to "my " letter and I am one of his constituents!!!. I even hand delivered the letter to his office here in Belleville. I just might call Monday to see if his staff even gave it to him.??? However I am pleased that he is in favour of our cause. Good work.
