Hello, The Annotated Constitution of The Australian Commonwealth By Quick and Garran. I believe to be aaccurate listing of the Australian Constitution. Its 1008 Pages tells it all. It's very intense and some 11 years of effort was put forward by a lot of people. Pages 253 to 261 lists most participants in its compilation. Any good Library should carry a copy. Regards, Peter.

There are two amendment formulas is the Canadian constitution. Most of the constitution can be amended with the general amendment formula. However, amendments to some parts of the constitution require the special amendment formula. The general amendment formula requires assent by the Senate, the House of Commons, and the legislatures of two thirds of the provinces, together representing at least half of the Canadian population. The special amendment formula requires assent by the Senate, the House of Commons, and unanimous assent by all provincial legislatures. If the Senate does not assent to the amendment, it can still be proclaimed as law if 180 days after first passing a resolution of assent to the amendment, the House of Commons again passes a resolution of assent. Changes to the powers of a provincial government or legislature cannot pass if the legislature of the province in question dissents to the amendment without later assenting to it. The Canadian Parliament and the provinces can unilaterally change their own constitutions except for some matters which are reserved for either the general amendment formula or the unanimous amendment formula.
