Many thanks for writing, Kevin! At present we have been asking for only a YES or NO answer re support of Jason Kenney's Motion M-160 which, if passed, would ensure the safety of the 1911 and later census records at the National Archives. Senator Lorna Milne's Bill S-15 has passed Second Reading and is now in Committee, and petitions for same are still coming in. If any Member of Parliament read THE MYTHS OF CENSUS by Gordon Watts, and should one have been an enumerator, one would realize the oath was not to write down information at one house, then go to the next one and start a conversation with , "You will never believe what I just learned next door!" Go to <http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census >>>>> Other Sites All items listed are printable, including my Genetically Inherited Diseases one. Very shortly, there may only be TWO colours, GOLD and RED. Muriel M.
