Introduction. The Macdonald-Laurier Institute held a debate on the Crown on 14 March 2012 on the resolution that âThe monarchy is a dangerous anachronismâ. John Fraser opposed it, and Michael Bliss supported it. The erstwhile republican Jack Granastein presided over the debate but did not intervene.
Nine counties have adopted âhome ruleâ charters, wherein voters have the power to adopt and amend their own county government organization.
Absent the home rule statement in the act, the principles of statutory construction would clearly dictate that statutory TCEAs are effective upon the publication by DCA of the jurisdictions meeting the population and density requirements to be DULA.
