Muriel Is that all you think it takes now to get a check mark on the scoreboard, is whether or not you support BILL S-13? My understanding of the scoreboard is that it represents whether or not a Senator, and MP is: 1. FOR RELEASE OF POST 1901 CENSUSES (after 92 years and no restrictions) 2. AGAINST THE RELEASE OF THE POST 1901 CENSUSES or 3. IS SITTING ON THE FENCE...which I darn well hope is a picket fence. It has nothing to do with whether or not he supports Bill S-13 with or without amendments. I DO NOT SUPPORT BILL S-13 as presently worded. As for the amendments...they aren't there, they aren't going to be there. The only amendments that would be 'endorsed' would be amendments to make the bill stronger and choke the life out of our Heritage. Bill S-13 is a retroactive legislation trying to change history, by putting something what our present government and chief bureaucrats think "should have been there but wasn't." If it had been there, our GOVERNMENT would have produced it long ago JUST SO THEY COULD RAM IT DOWN OUR THROATS. So now they want to ram it down our throats RETROACTIVELY. As well as fragment and destroy the historical value of future censuses. To bad your letter to Senator Maria Chaput didn't ask her where she stood on the release of Post 1901 censuses for the scoreboard than asked her whether or not she supported Bill S-13.
