This discussion was particularly timely as we look toward the next session of Parliament set to begin on January 26, 2009. Presented by the Centre for Constitutional Studies, the Legal Resource Centre, the Department of Political Science, and the Department of History & Classics, the discussion was recorded as a podcast and can be accessed here. kwurmann@ualberta.ca (Kirsten Wurmann ) Mon, 26 Jan 2009 16:02:23 -0700 http://www.acjnet.org/nanews/default.aspx?id=22893 http://www.acjnet.org/nanews/default.aspx?id=22893 A new special topic has been posted on ACJNet about the parliamentary and coalition quandries facing the Canadian government.
