I have not done anything because I am questioning myself so much that I am terrified of making a wrong turn! Paralyzed by fear! He is a politician, so posting names of his parents et al seems invasive of his privacy. Perhaps there are security concerns, as in the US.A.?

Anyone from Canada Project willing To set me Straight?

I will private message you. I reviewed the connections that you made and you did a great job. Thank you for your efforts!

His parents are already in the public domain so I don't see any problem adding them.

These '"assignments" should be fun and give a sense of satisfaction. Any mistakes can be fixed by others if needed.

So my guidance is to relax and enjoy the process.

Cheers, Rich

Hi Margaret,

I can understand your privacy concerns. Since he is a notable, I would include the names of living relatives, if their names are widely available on the internet. I'd probably only include his wife and parents though. Anyone else living, I'd leave off. Others may have other opinions. :)

If you edit this post and add the location tag Canada, you will get the attention of more members of the project.

Good luck and let me know if I can help.
