Presentation of Petition
Hon. Lorna Milne: Honourable senators, I rise to present a petition signed by 283 Canadians as well 6 Americans who are researching their family roots in Canada. Their petition calls upon Parliament to take whatever steps necessary to retroactively amend the confidentiality and privacy clauses of the Statistics Act since 1906 and to allow release to the public after a reasonable period of time of post-1901 census reports, starting with the 1906 census.
