Arrangement note:

The files are in alphabetical order, as per the original classification. However, we should point out that some were also assigned a file number, indicating that they were managed via the CCM-DOMUS database of the Correspondence Unit of the Office of the Prime Minister.

This sub-sub-series generally consists of correspondence exchanged between Jean Chrétien and Senators. However, certain pieces of Senator correspondence are probably stored in other sub-sub-series containing correspondence from the Prime Minister's Office. To this end, it may be useful to consult the finding aid for the Political and Personal Correspondence sub-sub-series.
