A comprehensive account of federal-provincial relations in Canada from Confederation to the formation of Wilfrid Laurier's government in 1896, revealing a pattern of conflict and collaboration paralleling events today. Begins with brief accounts of the origins of Confederation and characteristics of late 19th-century Canada, then recounts major issues that occupied the intergovernmental agenda, such as liquor regulation, land reform, and controversy over Catholic schools. Also examines the significance of particular practices and institutions including disallowance, reservation, and judicial review. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
