To all readers:- Let us think of today as a NEW BEGINNING!!! 1. We have the Environics Research Report -- printable! You require the Adobe Acrobat reader to view the document. It is 27 pages long and you will probably want to print it out for easy reading. Go to http://www.statcan.ca/english/census96/interm.htm 2. The Hon. John Manley is reading the Report of the Expert Panel. As a special favour to you, to me -- to all who wish the Post-1901 census records released: Please do not send any more "angry word" memos to Members of Parliament -- including Mr. Manley. I know we HAVE been frustrated! We have accomplished much -- now the future can only look better, if we all agree on this little item -- NO FLAMING MEMOS!!! Keep your messages polite but firm. If we antagonize the MPs we stand the risk of them voting against us out of spite. Personally, I would like the 1911 Canadian census records released as much as anyone -- my mother's sister, now 98, has never had her name on a Canadian census. She still keeps asking if the census has been released -- I know she would be very happy to know of release, even though I do not expect her to live to 2003 to read it. The family moved from Bucksport, Maine in 1909, so it would be a FIRST! Family members were my grandfather, George W. Adams, grandmother Jane (Jennie) Conrad Davis; children: Florence, 1900; IVA, 1902; Helen, (my mother) 1904-1986; Doris, 1906; Glenys, 1908. The census listing would not include my Uncle Warren, born 1912 at Liverpool, drowned 1926, Liverpool, Nova Scotia. However, what any constituent says to his/her own Member of Parliament, will be up to their own conscience. We, as the Canada Census Committee, do not wish any more HOT messages to people who are now working for us, with hopefully a suitable decision in the future -- one that will be pleasing to at least 95% of us.
