TY - GEN T1 - Constitutional amendment in Canada A2 - Macfarlane, Emmett LA - English PP - Toronto PB - University of Toronto Press YR - 2016 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/jstor_eba_ocn956738017 AB - "In Canada, the 1982 Constitution Act contains the amending formula, which outlines a set of procedures required to make changes to the constitution. Recent debates over Senate reform, the status of the Supreme Court of Canada, and the rules governing royal succession have highlighted how important the amending formula is in maintaining the vitality and relevance of the governing system."-- AB - "Constitutional Amendment in Canada is the first volume to focus solely on the implications of the amending formula in Canada. Emmett Macfarlane has brought together a group of expert authors to address such topics as the difficulties of constitutional reform, the intersection of various levels of government and the judiciary, and the ability of the public to veto proposed changes. Filling a serious gap in the literature, Constitutional Amendment in Canada is an authoritative study of the historical and contemporary implications of the amending formula."-- CN - KE4199 SN - 9781442619005 SN - 1442619007 SN - 9781442640498 SN - 1442640499 SN - 9781442628731 SN - 1442628731 KW - Canada. : Constitution Act, 1982.
