An important recommendation of the Rowell-Sirois commission in 1939 was that the federal government institute a system of ``national adjustment grants'' for poorer provinces and that general transfers be made to ensure that the provinces had enough revenue to fulfill their constitutional responsibilities without undue taxation.
The Rowell-Sirois commission took place in Canada.
