Am I to understand from this exchange in the highest legislative body
in the land that Government Ministers have decided to let Ireland's
History and Culture go to the dogs??? !!!
no they are catching up with Wales national library (and archives)
And it is not just the Welsh who have gone down that path:http://www.lac-bac.gc.ca/. Of course, the CHA remains under Government
House. It would likely archive its records with LAC.
