YES, IT'S THAT WORD AGAIN
The C-word has been popping up with increasing frequency lately, and I'm not talking about illness. It's a word that drifts in and out of Canadian political discourse from time to time, frequently accompanied by eye rolls, shudders and big sighs. I'm talking, of course, about the word Constitution.
Both the Quebec Liberal Party and now the CAQ government are promoting the idea that Quebec should have its own constitution, within the context of the Canadian Constitution. We wouldn't be the first province to have one (British Columbia has had a Constitution Act since 1996, subservient to the Canadian Constitution).
