| Summary, etc. |
Building on the current interest in constitutional issues in our field and a marked shift in power toward state governments, the present article argues that the highly decentralized federalism in Canada can teach Americans some important lessons on both the advantages of decentralized power and the dangers of its excesses. Specifically, the article examines the text and the early history of the British North America Act of 1867 which created the Dominion of Canada, the development and decline of the curious administrative office of lieutenant governor in the Canadian provinces, and the recent "federalaization" of individual rights in Canada under the aegis of the country's aggressive Supreme Court. - Reproduced |
