Why are these sheet allotted 10 and the drop list is only 5. Doing one would give me a headache. Why are these marked intermediate instead of advance. And the headers on the columns are in French and hard to read could there be a column in English.

😝🤬😣

    Per the instructions for the project:

    Records in this project are primarily in English and French. If you
    download a batch that is in a language you are uncomfortable indexing,
    simply return it for someone else to index, and download a new project.

    Most batches are set with the same number of blanks. It's a simple matter to delete the unneeded blanks.

    Column headings are in both English and French. Use the ruler to read all information across for each individual. You're right, these are very difficult (my opinion), but very similar to a U.S. census, so take only one batch at a time you can only index one batch at a time anyway 😎

    I wondered why Canada 1921 Census showed no percentages as I done 350 names all ready. It nice to know how we (indexers) are doing? Thank you.
