"Digitized by Publishing and Depository Services, Public Works and Government Services Canada - 2014" Bibliography. Complete, comprehensive and well-researched, "Amending Canada's Constitution" focuses on how the Canadian constitution is amended, examining the law and process of constitutional change in Canada. It reviews all Canadian constitutional amendments since July 1, 1867, examining major constitutional landmarks including the 1982 patriation of the Constitution and the Meech Lake and Charlottetown Accords. Canada's constitutional evolution is placed in a more meaningful context through comparisons with the experiences of other federations, such as the United States, Australia and Switzerland.
