Conclusion -- General Index -- Index of Rules and Standing Orders CitedProcedure in the Canadian House of Commons is an attempt to survey the whole field of Canadian procedure historically and analytically, to establish what the procedure of the House was in 1867 and to trace its slow development-its evolvement through principles, traditions, rulings, and precedents-to the present time. A particular interest has been taken in depicting how the House operates in practice as compared with how it is believed to operate in theory. Throughout his analysis, Dawson provides insightful criticism and proposals for improvement in the hopes that this book will provide a new perspective on procedure both to those who are caught up in the day-to-day functioning of the House and to those, both in the House and outside it, who are concerned about larger, more distant implications.Canadian government series ;12.HISTORY / Canada / Post-Confederation (1867-)bisacshElectronic books.HISTORY / Canada / Post-Confederation (1867-).328.7105Dawson W.
