Constitutional Actor Canada Bill(1791) British law repealing certain portions of the Quebec Act of 1774. The new act provided a more democratic constitution for the area, establishing an elected legislature for each province, the first in that part of Canada, and a governor and an executive council appointed by the crown. Bills could originate in the legislature, but they could be disallowed by the crown. How to thank TFD for its existence?

The vote on the Canada Bill in the British House of Commons was 177 in favour, and 33 against; fewer than a third of the 635 Members of Parliament had bothered to turn up. One of the administration's chief criticisms of the Canada bill is the hardship it would cause small retailers, which will have to deal with three tax rates for the items they sell. |
