Hi Linda and to other Americans:- Gordon Watts deserves the credit for making it easy to send a message to a Member of Parliament <gordon_watts@telus.net> We, as Canadians, are very concerned about this matter -- the Report of the Expert Panel was given to John Manley June 30, 2000 -- to date we do not have one word of it. Gordon Watts has been in contact with Dr. Pamela White, as have others. Senator Lorna Milne loves PETITIONS, these may be sent to her office, or to my address for her. [Also view OTHER SITES at this URL] http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census Petitions are downloadable in Word, WordPerfect -- address on them. Americans would choose the Non-Canadian one. If you know the area of your Canadian roots, be our guest -- tell the MP and how important it is to learn if your grandfather (or other) had siblings, ages, basic information. [I do not care how many bushels of wheat were grown or the money earned -- the dollar value is very different today]. The main one in Ontario to smother with letters is Hon. John Manley <Manley.J@parl.gc.ca> To send a letter by mail, address it to House of Commons, Parliament Buildings, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6 Mr. Manley is responsible for census, appointed the Expert Panel. Mr. Watts may send you further information -- all assistance is appreciated. Senator Milne keeps the matter in the forefront by mentioning the petitions received - it is reported in Hansard, the daily journal. Hoping to hear from you, Muriel M. Davidson <davidson3542@home.com> 25 Crestview Ave., Brampton, Ontario L6W 2R8 http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census/index6.htm http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Farm/7843/poll.html ==================== Linda Hill wrote: > Hi Muriel, > I, too visited your web site and was impressed with how easy you made it > for Canadians to e-mail their representative.
