Amending Canada's constitution : history, processes, problems and prospects / by James Ross Hurley. : CP32-63/1995E

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. This valuable reference contains many rare or recently de-classified letters and documents chronicling the history of Canada's constitution, and also includes a series of correspondence between Pierre Trudeau and René Levesque concerning the question of a Quebec veto, dated 1981-82.
