[edit] Dividing the list
As I understand it there are a number of the Acts do not fall within the definition of s. 52(2), so aren't part of the constitution today. Perhaps we should divide the list into current constitutional documents and past/defunct constitutional documents. --PullUpYourSocks 13:50, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Has List of documents from the constitutional history of Canada completely slipped your mind? CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 19:08, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Ah, yes. In fact, it did slip my mind. So then, is this list only documents that fall within the meaning of s.52(2)? I haven't spent any time to figure it out myself so I may be wrong, but I had imagined the list would be smaller than this. -PullUpYourSocks 02:36, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how either list was complied, but section 52 doesn't list anything. It just mentions a schedule that contains the list, but this is not it. I think the official list doesn't include anything before 1867- the Royal Proclamation and Quebec Act aren't on it for example. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 02:41, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
