Greetings all. This afternoon, a special edition of the Global Gazette was posted online. It is accessible at http://globalgazette.net/gazce/gazce81.htm This issue contains an expanded version of my assessment of the Environics Report on the Town Hall Meetings and Focus Groups conducted for Statistics Canada.. It also has news relating to Bills C-312, S-12, and our Legal Case. There is a rumour that Industry Minister Alan Rock MAY be considering making an announcement about access to Historic Census records. No guarantees, but that is the rumour -- so I am told. In conjunction with suggestions relating to that rumour I include here the snail mail address for the Honourable Industry Minister Hon. Allan Rock Minister of Industry C.D. Howe Building 11th Floor, East Tower 235 Queen Street Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H5 There has recently been a new feature added to the Global Gazette that allows you to forward the articles to friends, relatives, MPs etc. Entering an email address and clicking 'send' brings up a new email form with the URL for the article. It also allows you to add your own comments before sending it. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.
