times

The

of

viewed
the

government
with
suspi
suspicion

and
generally
ruled
In

of

In

This

OTTAWA
CP
-
If
the
Fathers
of
Confederation
could
join
the
present
centen
nial
celebrations
the
would
hardly
recognize
the
si
stem
of
government
they
estab
established
¬

100
ears
ago
The
product
of
their
state
craft
the
British
North
Amer
ica
Act
remains
essentially
intact
today
but
the
whole
political
context
has
changed
When
the
DNA
Act
is
read
in
Isolation
It
describes
Can
ada
as
a
backward
colony
ruled
by
a
British
autocrat
called
the
Governor
General
Parliament
has
the
power
to
legislate
on
all
national
issues
and
the
provinces
amount
to
glorified
municipalities
This
picture
of
Canadian
government
distorted
reality
from
the
start
and
It
grad
ually
evolved
into
a
mere
caricature
In
short
the
core
of
the
constitution
Is
100
years
old
and
looks
its
age
If

next

on
constitutional
amend

One
of
the
major
embar
rassments
plaguing
centennial
functions
springs
from
the
absence
of
an
agreed
formula
to
amend
the
BNA
Act
Due
to
historic
disagree
ments
between
Canadian
poll
ticians
Canada
has
the
quaint
distinction
of
being
the
only
independent
country
in
the
world
that
has
to
submit
its
major
constitutional
amend
ments
to
the
parliament
of
another
country
Since
18G7
the
British
Par
Parliament
¬
liament
has
passed
16
formal
amendments
to
the
BNA
Act
at
the
Canadian
governments
request
The
last
came
in
1964
when
the
federal
govern
ment
was
authorized
to
in
elude
disability
and
survivor
benefits
in
the
Canada
Pen
sion
Plan
Nearly
every
time
this
cum
cumbersome
¬
bersome
machinery
was
used
some
provinces
criticized
Ot
tawa
for
acting
alone
or
without
proper
consultations
and
British
MPs
and
lords
grumbled
that
they
were
tired
of
wasting
their
time
on
Canadian
legislation
Many
more
modifications
of
the
constitution
were
carried
out
by
other
means
acts
of
the
Canadian
Parliament
and
of
the
provincial
legislatures
cabinet
orders
decisions
by
the
Supreme
Court
of
Canada
and
the
Privy
Council
in
Lon
don
and
international
treaties
Most
constitutional
authori
authorities
¬
ties
agree
that
the
crucial
division
of
powers
set
out
in
the
-BNA
Act
of
1867
was
weighed
heavily
in
Ottawas
favor
OTTAWA
HAS

The
central
government
got
the
powers
to

to
