Re-Opening The Constitution: Canadians Cool With It, Poll Finds

[1] "repatriate­d" -- "re" means do again; the Constitution was not "patriated AGAIN" in 1982. It purported to be patriated for the first time.

[2] The Charter was 100% illegal, there was no constitutional power in the Crown of Canada or that of the UK to assent to "amending" the Constitution by adding this thing that alters the federal and provincial POWERS that are PROTECTED from amendment by s. 7 of the Statute of Westminster, 1931 which is part of Canada's constitution. The main purposes of the Charter were (a) to harmonize Canada with COMMUNITARIAN LAW as used in the European Union to ELIMINATE long-held "individual rights" by subjecting them to review under a "balancing clause" in the superior interests of a COLLECTIVE -- a "community" that has never been legally defined for purposes of Canadian Charter review, thus the Judges have for decades "ruled" as they please, with unfettered discretion in the absence of a LEGAL definition of the "free and democratic society" in whose "interests" individual rights are to be limited and re-drawn by the autocratic judges; and this (b) pending Canada's ultimate assimilation into a Marxist world government system, the basis of which is the UN, as announced in 1946 by Canada's future Prime Minister, Louis Stephen Saint-Laurent;

[3] Constitutional AMENDMENT under the written Constitution of Canada is not the same as LEGISLATIVE amendment of a Bill before a Legislature; the term "major constitutional change" is an oxymoron; constitutional amendment is incremental, gradual and minimal. It does not change the form of government or the powers; it does not transfer sovereignty from those responsible for its maintenance into the hands of others with intent to dispose of it, as the Charter does. Major "reform" is a cover for a constitutional coup d'état and is totalitarian, i.e., Meech and Charlottetown.

No politician ever met a camera he or she didn't love or a baby that wasn't kissed.

Me neither.

There is everything wrong with the Constitution. Despite my equal hatred for Harper, and my fears of him meddling and messing it up, it must go. Only stupid people want to keep it.

Exactly, who do these "pollsters" actually work for and who do they "poll." Bad times ahead for our great country.

The polls never asked me anything, either, and I think the constitution should be reopened!

1867 or 1982, or just the premise of a constitution in general?

Wow, that just sounds ignorant.
Our Constitution is one of the best and most progressive in the world which requires change every once in a while.
Though now is not the time and Quebec and the Senate are not good progressive reasons to do so, a Constitution is 100% necessary for a modern state.

How so. Every citizen is represented by an MP. If you want a representative that does exactly what you want then seek office.

A long standing tradition in our political system is that a representative is their to exercise their best judgement, not to simply do what they think the majority of their constituents want. If you want the later type of representation we could save a lot of money and hire a polling company to run the country.
