Report of the Commission on the Political and Constitutional Future of Québec


Book Description

In the wake of a quarter century of futile efforts, the Quebec National Assembly has unanimously recognized that, at this point in Quebec's history and development under the Canadian federal regime, Quebec must redefine its political and constitutional status. This document asks why this is the case, and how, and to what extent must Quebec's political and constitutional status be redefined.
