Cover image

To commemorate the 125th anniversary of the Canadian federation, the Canada Communication Group and Éditions du Méridien have jointly produced the legal texts, referred to as "Canada's Constitution", that created the Canada we know. This souvenir book of exceptional quality, designed like a family album with 32 colour illustrations, some of them little-known to the general public, will allow the reader to learn about the evolution of democracy in Canada from 1763 to the present.
