But it would not be without its costs as the question of Quebec's status in Canada loomed larger than ever. <br />For a history from Confederation to the Fulton-Favreau agreement, please consult "Canada's Constitutional Debate: What Makes a Nation."

Unfinished business brought the First Ministers back to the constitutional bargaining table in 1987. Many Canadians felt uneasy about Quebec's exclusion from the 1982 Constitution and so the negotiations began again under the leadership of Prime Minister Brian Mulroney with the Meech Lake Accord. CBC Archives examines the backroom lockdowns, the "distinct society" debate and the ultimate undercurrent of constitutional discord.
