Document Summary
Money matters and how it is distributed amongst provinces is important. Since then we have expanded enormously (addition of all other provinces) Legislature: first pillar of our system of government. Federalism: second pillar of our system of government. Courts: third pillar of our system of government. Federalism: a way of constraining government by dividing it. Powers/jurisdictions shall be exclusive to provinces or to central government. There shall be a degree of autonomy for national govts and central govt. Scope for provinces in initial legislations can be small, but it doesn"t mean they are. Cdn federation now is one of the most decentralized. Each govt is directly involved in governing people/individual cdn citizens. In a constitutional sense there in unitary govt there is no division of territory. Ex: new zealand: only parliament has legislative function. Peripheralised govt: regional govt dominates (arguably never canada) Confederation: central govt has delegated responsibilities, more entrenched structure but similar to an alliance.
