Greetings All. Contrary to my earlier expectations, today's session in the House of Commons (Friday 20 May) did include two periods of debate on Government Orders. Unfortunately the time allotted for both periods was taken up entirely with debate on Bill C-9. There was no debate today on Bill S-18 or any of the other Bills currently shown on the Projected Order of Business. It would appear that on any given sitting day, appearance of a Bill on the Projected Order of Business is not a guarantee that it will be debated on that day. My assumption now is that once on the POB, a Bill should remain there until it has been dealt with. If the Bills on the POB are dealt with continuously, in the order in which they appear on the POB, it would appear that Second Reading debate of Bill S-18 is unlikely to begin until close to the time when Parliament would normally recess for the summer on 9 June 2005. By my estimate the four government Bills currently shown on the POB before Bill S-18, if dealt with consecutively, will take up a minimum of 14 to 16 hours of debate. With Government Orders normally taking up two hours of debate per day, it would take 7 to 8 sitting days before they get to start debate of Bill S-18. There are currently only nine sitting days left until the normal date that Parliament would recess for the summer. One media report has shown the last day of sitting as 23 June which would indicate that the session has been extended by ten days. However I have yet to see anything official indicating that such is the case. I expect if I am incorrect in any of my assumptions here, that Jeff will likely correct me. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

Bill S-18 was announced as being on the Order paper for May 30, 2005 -- Muriel ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gordon A. Watts" <gordon_watts@telus.net> To: "Canada Census Campaign" <CANADA-CENSUS-CAMPAIGN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2005 6:42 PM Subject: Post 1901 Census Greetings All. The votes on Bills C-43 and C-48 in the House of Commons have just concluded. The Conservatives voted in favour of the main Bill, C-43, along with the Liberals while the Bloc voted against it. Bill C-43 passed with no problem. On the second and perhaps more critical vote of Bill C-48, the Conservatives and Bloc Members voted against it while the Liberals and NDP voted in favour. The result was a tie of 152 - 152 requiring the Speaker of the House to cast the tie-breaking vote. The result of that is that Bill C-48 passed and the government was not brought down. There will be no election called at this time. This means Bill S-18 should once again appear on the Projected Order of Business for the House of Commons. As I write this, the Projected Order of Business on the government website does not yet go past today. One supporter of access has received a response from his MP indicating that S-18 is on the legislative calendar for 30 May 2005. Whether or not that is true, we will have to wait and see. According to the Calendar for the House of Commons, the House does not sit during the coming week. They are scheduled to resume sitting on Monday 30 May 2005, at which time there will be only nine sitting days left before the normal time of recess for the summer. During the coming week we should continue to contact our MPs seeking passage of Bill S-18 before Parliament recesses for the summer. I for one would much prefer to spend my summer months researching the records of the 1911 National Census of Canada, than having to continue the fight to see them released. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

I feel she was the perfect person to bestow the benefits of this award upon. She represents the Franco-American culture with grace." This concert is made possible by a Traditional Arts Apprenticeship grant from the N.H. State Council on the Arts, a state agency for the National Endowment of the Arts. These grants are designed to bring a master artist together with an apprentice for the purpose of passing on a traditional art so that this art may be preserved for future generations. Poulin and Therrien are just one of twelve master-apprentice teams working in New Hampshire during this 2004-2005 grant period. Says Poulin, ³The Traditional Arts Apprenticeship has made it possible for me to reconnect with this lost part of my heritage. Laughing, singing and playing the spoons with Lucie is like coming home again.² Join Lucie Therrien and Susan Poulin for a celebration of French songs on June 9 at the McArthur Library, 270 Main Street, Biddeford, Maine.

From the PRDH, I have different parents listed for Chrusostome BELANGER who m. Marie-Louise GODIN 17 Apr. 1776. The show Pierre Paul (BONSECOUR) BELANGER and Marie Claire FOURNIER who m. 28 Oct. 1742 at Cap-St-Ignace.

Could the parents be the same couple using different given names? Jackie Hostage Hi, Forne is a close enough resemblance to the name Fournier to be accepted as a match in the absence of any other possibility. Not all baptisms made it to us. The age at death of Chrysostome indivates he was born in 1750 or so. The family Belanger/Fournier shows a gap in births between 1746 and 1751. Obviously, Chrysostome was born in that interval and his baptism did not reach us. He does not show up in the PRDH family file because the family files rest on records registered before 1765. He appears in no record prior to 1766. Bertrand Desjardins PRDH

According to the the church records of Ste-Genevieve-de-Berthier, Chrisostome Belanger married M. Louise Godin 17 Apr 1776. Chrisostome parents were Pierre & Marianne Ferne.
