Davidson" <muriel_davidson@sympatico.ca> Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2004 10:12 PM Subject: RE: We Are Waiting for Your Positive Reply Thank you for contacting me about access to census data. Census records are an invaluable source of information for those conducting historical or genealogical research. The Official Opposition voted unanimously in favour of a motion that stated: "That in the opinion of this House, the government should take all necessary steps to release the 1911 census records once they have been deposited in the National Archives in 2003." Rest assured, I am monitoring this issue closely. In the current Parliament, with a minority government, all Members of Parliament have a greater opportunity for constructive input to help bring a positive resolution to this important matter. If I can be of any further assistance to you in the future, please do not hesitate to contact my office. -- Pierre Poilievre, M.P.

Subject: We Are Waiting for Your Positive Reply Mr. Pierre Poilievre, MP -- Nepean-Carleton 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. Please do not forward to David Emerson, Minister of Industry -- but reply -- even just a few words by email will do. Muriel M.
