Greetings All. On Thursday 1 June 2000, Senator Rose-Marie Losier-Cool presented a petition supporting release of Historic Census records to the Senate. From the following extract of Hansard for the Senate I assume the petition presented was one sent by Victor Luce, one of the members of the Canada Census Campaign committee. Gordon ------------------------------------------------ Census Records Presentation of Petition Hon. Rose-Marie Losier-Cool: Honourable senators, I have the honour to table a petition whose signatures were collected in Tracadie-Sheila, New Brunswick, by Généalogie Tracadie Inc., urging the government to: ...take the necessary measures to retroactively amend the provisions of the Statistics Act relating to the protection of information going back to 1906, so as to allow access to censuses after a reasonable post-1901 period, beginning with the 1906 census.
