Description

It is Canada's fate to have become a pioneer in managing a very challenging type of constitutional politics. This is the constitutional politics of a democratic political community among whose people there are very different senses of national allegiance and identity. In such a society the major question underlying constitutional politics is always: can these people or peoples constitute a political community? Canada's engagement in this kind of constitutional politics has come about not through rational choice or abstract philosophy. We have stumbled into this situation without fully realizing what we were doing. Even now many Canadians--perhaps even a majority, especially in 'English Canada' and among new immigrants--would not accept my characterization of Canada as a multi-national society. They yearn for a Canada with a single sense of national identity. In effect, they yearn for a different Canada than the one in which they find themselves. Indeed, their very sense of unease about our disunity is an important element in Canada's constitutional restlessness.
