You touched briefly on the peculiar way in which our Referendum Act is structured, in that it permits ballot questions to be held in some provinces and not in others. I think the purpose of this back in 1992 was to take into account that Quebec and potentially other provinces might want to hold parallel processes on the same question. But my impression is that it's actually a useful thing to leave in the statute, because we have an unusual amending formula. The Referendum Act deals with constitutional questions, and section 43 of the Constitution permits constitutional amendments that affect one or more provinces but not all of them. One could imagine, for example, a boundary adjustment between two provinces that would affect just those two and not others.
Do you agree with me that it makes sense to leave this provision in the act, allowing referenda to be held in some provinces but not all?
