To all:- Please do not waste your time writing to anyone who already has one Red X -- it may only antagonize him further. I am being harrassed by one of our census committee members, a close friend of Ted White's -- sending tons of letters, e-mails, etc. will not do any good. However, my DELETE key is ready -- it is kept busy! All my life I have worked in a male environment -- even had five brothers -- my shoulders (and my spirit ) can take it. I would rather anyone who feels like writing a letter or e-mail (other than this MPs constituents) would check the scoreboard first: http://www.globalgenealogy.com/census/index6.htm There are many who still have a BLUE ?? which means he/she has not written -- last count over 185. Please concentrate on these people, hope for an answer, and let us know so Gordon can post it....we have to keep him busy! At present, Nova Scotia has 8 out of 11 GOLD -- good way to start the morning with a YES phone call from Peter Stoffer, MP. There are ONLY five (5) with RED X's -- they have made a choice! I hope to see only GOLD and RED before the census vote in the House of Commons. Please, it is my request -- Ted White has made his choice, forget it! However, the National Post story is very poor journalism -- there are always two sides to every story - I learned this back in 1942 when I started with Liverpool Advance, Cape Breton Post, Halifax Herald, Brampton Daily Times, finally women's editor of The Brampton Guardian. My age -- figure this out yourself!!! Let's have no further comments re this episode -- we have work to do! Muriel M.
