To Bill Bewick:- I am happy Mr. Anders has ordered information from the library. However, look around your office -- you may already have some very well-researched information, THE MYTHS OF CENSUS sent to all Members of Parliament by Gordon Watts, census committee. Should you not find it, it is printable from:- http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Farm/7843/poll.html All copyrighted material has been removed for the internet version. A CD is also available <gordon_watts@telus.net> Also, MEMORANDUM OF LAW by Lois Sparling, Alberta barrister http://www.waynecook.com/simcoe.shtml I have the complete book and CD as researched by Mr. Watts, every Member of Parliament should have this as required reading before any voting on census. We will be happy to answer any more questions -- also Mr. Watts will be in Calgary in the next few days. Muriel M.
