Thank you.
A second question I have is with relation to something that has been suggested in the past, the idea that an alternative to elections is appointment on the advice of recommendations made by the provincial legislatures. That was actually one of the options put forward in the 1980 Supreme Court reference case. The court at that time indicated that this would violate the principle of non-delegation. The idea that delegation ought not to occur is something I assume has not changed as a result of the adoption of the Constitution Act of 1982 and its amending formula. I'm looking for some confirmation as to whether or not this invalidates that potential alternative option as a means of selecting senators.
