April 4, 1902 (9th Parliament, 2nd Session)

Mr. SPROULE.

May I ask the hon. member a question ? Was not the first question of the enumerator this : In the event of
any of the members of the family being away, do you expect them to come back ? In the event of their not being expected back, the next question was : Have they
been away more than a year '? But in the event of the first question being answered in the affirmative, even if they were away five years, the enumerators would be obliged to include them.
