To all RESEARCHERS & GENEALOGISTS:- A special invitation was issued on the weekend for new subscribers to the Canada Census Campaign mail list -- started June 14, 1999. Prior to last weekend, there were about 324 subscribers -- many more now and still subscribing! The CENSUS list, as we call it, is a forum for discussion relating to the release of census records -- there is a committee and many Friends. We have worked very hard since March 1999 -- and with important announcement(s) coming, we hope all want to hear all the news! [email protected] Only one word subscribe [However, if you are not afraid of wearing out the DELETE key, you may change the D to L -- Digest is better for busy people!] There will be a very special announcement on Monday morning, which will include TV and other coverage. We invite you to be part of this exciting time -- but do not forget, PETITIONS are still needed for both House of Commons and the Senate -- Non-Residents are invited -- we know many have Canadian roots -- they may also write to politicians. Let's aim for a record subscribership! Gordon Watts is administrator of this list -- but please remember, NO LOOKUPS -- we do not have time to do this -- yet many help privately - at least I do! Let's keep Gordon Watts busy!! To answer one question:- Postings will still be done to all present lists which accept census postings - by Gordon and myself. Muriel M.
