Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the historical clashes over the governance of the province of Quebec in the early 19th century, which centered on the powers of the provincial legislature, particularly in regard to allocating funds for the civil government and The Crownâs control of appropriated funds. The author argues that the Assembly, the popularly elected house, sought to diminish the power of The Crown by asserting its right to direct and appoint how funds were allocated, even to the extent of dispossessing the Crown of its appropriated funds. The result of this was a prolonged standoff between the Assembly and other branches of government, leading to accusations of constitutional violations, and raising questions about the rights of British subjects and the nature of mixed government. This book is a valuable resource for understanding the development of representative government in Canada and the historical tensions between the Crown and elected officials.
