Abstract

But Turp has no real interest in a written constitution for Quebec as a I province i , it would seem, simply in one for Quebec as a country. In a glum chapter, he is troubled by who counts as the "constituent power" for such a constitution in the nation-to-nation relationship, even wondering whether Quebec itself counts given it is already part of the larger Canadian constitution (163). In fact, codification may lead local constitutions to come to look more like the I national i one, or even lead to greater centralization - a real warning to those who want a provincial constitution to enhance Quebec's uniqueness (232-233, 253).
