I'm starting to put some work into this article and so far made a few changes that may prove controversial. Particularly, I've removed the British legislation from the list of "frequently cited" parts of the constitution. I did this because those two acts, at least in Canadian Constitutional law, are not cited that much at all. I don't deny they are important parts of the constitution but nevertheless they are more historical than anytihing else. They aren't given that much analysis in Courts. If anyone disagrees with any of my changes I hope we can work it out. -- PullUpYourSocks 22:09, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] List
I forgot to log in when I did it, but I added to the article a list of the documents that form the Canadian constitution. These are the acts and orders listed in the Constitution Act, 1982, as well as the further ammendments to those acts. --Q Canuck 14:52, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- It's a good list, but it should be moved to List of Canadian constitutional documents. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 15:31, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- I'd agree .. but that article seems a list of historical pre-patriation constitutional documents. There's a whole slew of stuff that isn't considered part of our constitution anymore, and none of the 1982 and forward documents. I could try merging the current documents onto that page, and making a "historical" section for a good deal of what's there now? --Q Canuck 17:06, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- For historical stuff we have a List of documents from the constitutional history of Canada CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 17:11, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- Ah. Okies, I'll work on merging the information when I have some time. --Q Canuck 18:59, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
