Summary:
Article negatively criticizing those in favour of the Charlottetown Accord. The author argues against the Accord for three reasons: first, it would greatly increase the size of government and, by extension, the financial burden on taxpayers through increasing the number of MPs; second, interprovincial trade barriers will not be reduced because there is no specific plan in the Accord; third, social programs would be best left accountable to elected politicians rather than the unelected judiciary.
Keywords:
