Most recently we have been subjected to the Bloc Quebecois in Ottawa, the Parti Quebecois in Quebec and the narrowly defeated Quebec Referendum on Oct. 30, 1995. Below I have listed the six most relevant documents that I have written on the subject: = Letter to Schreyer, Trudeau, Romanow The Constitutional Conference Committee spearheaded by Bert Brown in Calgary has recently suggested the creation of Constituent Assemblies across Canada to draft an appropriate constitution.

    Extractions: Previous Article Next Article FNPI Search Home ... Year List SASKATCHEWAN INDIAN MAY 1982 v12 n04 p10 April 17, 1982 was proclaimed as a day of mourning for the aboriginal peoples of Canada. It was the day the British Crown irreversibly betrayed every treaty, proclamation, agreement, trust and promise made with the Indian Nations of Canada. To take a share in our land the British Crown promised to protect Indian lands and to protect Indian jurisdiction on those lands, to protect the Indian way of life. Britain soon forgot her promises and the trickle of settlers became a flood. For the last three years Chiefs, Indian organizations and leaders and ordinary Indian people have written to the Queen to inform her that the treaties were endangered by a new settler government constitution. She resolutely refused to respond or to meet us though graciously accepted our gifts to her when we visited her homeland. When the Queen of Great Britain came to our homeland to proclaim the settler government's constitution, there were no similar acts of courtesy to the Indian leaders. There was no acknowledgement of so many letters to her from the Indian people outlining just how the treaties and the Royal Proclamation would no longer be safeguarded in Canada's Constitution. She could not pretend we no longer existed: the two-month "Indian debate" in Westminster precluded that. So she just pretended that we were happy in the new arrangement that would sanction one of the most massive land grabs in history.

    Extractions: November 15, 2001 Constitutional Express I n 1980, the Federal Government proposed a resolution to the Canadian Constitution . On September 15, 1980 the UBCIC, in reviewing the position of the Federal Government on Patriation of the Canadian Constitution, discovered that the Indian people would lose all of their aboriginal rights should this occur. At the 12th Annual General Assembly, the Chiefs passed a resolution that "the convention give full mandate to the UBCIC to take the necessary steps to ensure that Indian Governments; Indian Lands, Aboriginal Rights and Treaty Rights are entrenched in the Canadian Constitution" (October 14-17, 1981). The aboriginal people of BC decided to take action. T T wo trainloads of people made up of Band members and Chiefs, boarded trains which left Vancouver, British Columbia, on November 24, 1980 bound for the nations capital, Ottawa. The trains made stops along the way, picking up more passengers and making presentations to the communities and the media. Approximately 1000 people arrived in Ottawa to give speeches to the communities and lobby the government officials. A small delegation continued on to the United Nations in New York.

30. MACHRAY REVIEW #2: Charter Of Rights & The Canadian Constitution
    The Relation of the Charter of Rights to the canadian constitution. The Canadianconstitution of 1867 conforms to neither the American nor the European type.  
    http://www.prayerbook.ca/machray/pbscmr2b.htm
    
    Extractions: to the Canadian Constitution. D That the Charter of Rights and Freedoms has priority over our fundamental political institutions is a mistaken dogma. Historically the state is antecedent to definite rights of individuals in relation to it. In British constitutional history, from the Magna Carta rights have had the form of limiting the powers of a monarchy already existing. In the development of the British constitution an indeterminate relation of monarchy came by degrees to he a government of the people, by the people and for the people. What the American example illustrates may be shown by a more general consideration. There are tribal forms of human life where government is rudimentary, and rudimentary likewise is the sense of an individual independence from tribal solidarity. States in a proper sense suppose that individuals have been cast from this first paradise and then in the separation subjected to a unified power, that is, to a state. There have been and are in human history states against which individuals have no rights but are confined to some particular labour, as for example, the Indian castes. The first type has its purest expression in the American constitution. The Americans first wrote their Constitution - then added a Bill of Rights to it. As the state was thought to he from a contract among individuals already free to pursue their private good, they were assured the continuance of this freedom within the state. The state thus instituted is not however equivalent to society but has an independent operation in which it might oppress the rights of individual members. These rights were therefore assured in a series of amendments to the constitution. Society, that is, the collectivity of individuals free to pursue their private interests, appears in this view as both antecedent to the state and consequent to it: prior to the purported contract expressed in the Constitution, subsequent in the amendments appended to that same Constitution.

    Extractions: by Clayton White The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH) has embarked on a court challenge to prove Canadians have a Constitutional right to hunt. The court challenge has been sparked by Ontario's closure of the spring black bear hunt. The closure, as explained by the Ontario government, has no foundation in conservation principles or safety, but was implemented because of "ethical reasons". This of course begs the question, "Whose ethics?" The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (the Charter) guarantees that all Canadians have the right of freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression. Consequently, the Supreme Court of Canada has said that we cannot exclude human activity from guaranteed free expression on the basis of content or meaning being expressed. While it may surprise and even shock you, on this basis, the Supreme Court of Canada has said that expressions such as child pornography and hate mongering are protected under the Charter. Hunting, as a core value of many Canadians (particularly in the North) could surely then be deemed expressive as well.

    Extractions: Through his writings, Walter Bagehot gave order and meaning to the institutions of parliamentary government. The English Constitution (1867) acknowledges the Crown as centrepiece but relegates it to the category of symbol. Institutions, Bagehot said, were ``dignified'' or ``efficient'' according to their constitutional function, and the Crown was the apotheosis of a dignified element. By contrast, the author argues that the Crown is an integral part of a practical form of government in Canada, and advances as proof three areas of Crown influence: representation, information and participation. The discussion concludes by noting the relevance of the Crown for the study of Canadian federalism.

Jeremy Webber. Montreal and Kingston: McGill-Queen's University Press 1994. Pp. xii, 374. $44.95 cloth, $19.95 paper Reviewed by Janet Ajzenstat, McMaster University For decades Canadians have been attempting to reform the Constitution, broaden political consensus, and strengthen national unity. Yet unity, consensus, and confidence in our institutions continue to elude us. The breakup of the country remains a possibility. As Webber argues, in the very act of reaching for a new Canadian identity we have watched it slip away (176). Why? What has happened? What can be done? Webber does not write as disinterested scholar, content to fiddle while Canada burns. In 1989-90 he was active in the Friends of Meech Lake, a group that attempted to rescue the accord from the fumblings of the Tory government. Reimagining Canada revisits the Friends' argument for asymmetrical federalism and constitutional recognition of Quebec's distinctiveness from a broad, theoretical perspective. Part one tells the story of the constitutional process from the early 1960s. Little in this section is startlingly original. The important and fascinating aspects of the book emerge in part two, where Webber sets out a novel theory of Canadian political identity and community.

Upon the first meeting of the Nova Scotia Legislature on October 3, 1758, the "received law" of England was fixed and unaffected by subsequent changes in the English law. It could be amended, repealed or added to by the Nova Scotia Legislature.
