g ifonths of bitter
w'
Among, .between federal
and rbyllrtcial governments,
Ike^ V.dlan constitution
finAlt will be patriated with
at . least a semblance of
u[rattimity.
.:A compromise reached
last Thursday during last-
ditch meetings between the
two sides in the constitu-
tonal debate has been
signed by Prime Minister
Pierre Trudeau and nine of
the 10 provincial premiers.
Only Quebec Premier
Rene Levesque refused the
accord, which he denounced
as another example of the
manner in which his pro-
vince is isolated within the
confederation. He predicted
"incalculable con-
sequences" and threatened
to take all possible means to
ensure that a constitution
limiting its powers is not
imposed on Quebec.
The agreement is the
result of give-and-take by
both sides in the debate,
though it appears that in the
end the federal party,
supported by Ontario and
New Brunswick, gave the
most.
It contains a modified
form of the amending for -
mule put forward by the so-
called Gang of Eight — the
eight provinces which had
gone to the Supreme Court in
opposition to the federal
package. The formula
requires the consent of two-
thirds of the provinces
having at least 50 per cent of
the national population for
any proposed amendments.
It also allows any province

to opt out of future consti-
tutional amendments which
would affect provincial
powers, and provincial legis-
lation will be permitted to
override certain provisions
of the charter of rights.
Tied to the amending
formula is a watered-down
version of the rights charter
proposed by the Trudeau
government and later
modified by Parliament.
The charter now includes a
"notwithstanding" clause,
covering sections dealing
with fundamental freedoms,
legal rights and equality
rights. The clause enables
provincial governments to
enact legislation, notwith-
standing the fact it is con-
trary to the Charter of
Rights and Freedoms. Such
legislation must be renewed
every five years to remain in
force.
Also dropped from the con-
stitution is the section
dealing with the rights of
Native peoples, though
Native leaders are to be
invited to take part in the
next round of constitutional
talks.
Objections voiced by Mr.
Levesque include dropping
of a clause which would have
provided financial compen-
sation to any province which
chose to drop out of a federal ,
program created through
constitutional amendment.
The Quebec premier also
objected to a clause in which
the nine provinces agreed to
provide minority language
education for English and
French-speaking minorities
across the country, which he
complained is intrusion by
Ottawa into a provincial
responsibility.
The accord, which fills just
a page and a half of legal -
size paper, was initially
drafted by Newfoundland
Premier Brian Peckford and
modified during an all-night
meeting with several other
premiers and„ officials on
Wednesday.
It was adopted Thursday
following 31/2 hours of private
discussion among the first
ministers.
