Allaire Report
The Allaire Report was a report written by the constitutional reform committee of the Liberal Party of Quebec, chaired by lawyer and politician Jean Allaire,〔(David Layton-Brown, ''Canadian Annual Review of Politics''(1991), p.21 )〕 recommending a significant transfer of powers from Canada's federal government to the Government of Quebec. Entitled "''A Quebec Free to Choose''",〔(Richard Fidler, ''Canada adieu? Quebec debates its future'' (1991), p.49 )〕 the report was published on January 29, 1991 and adopted as party policy by the Liberal Party at their 25th convention on March 9, 1991.〔(Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, ''Breaking Point: Timeline - 1991'' )〕
== Report recommendations ==
The report recommended that the Canadian constitution be amended so that 22 areas of federal jurisdiction or jurisdictions shared between the federal and provincial governments become exclusive areas of provincial jurisdiction.〔(Radio Canada, ''Canada: la saga constitutionnelle - Le rapport Allaire'' (13 August 1999) )〕 These areas included social affairs, culture,〔(Mollie Dunsmuir, ''Culture and communications: the constitutional setting'' (September 1991) )〕 health, family policy, manpower training, communications, the environment, agriculture and public security. The report recommended that the federal government no longer be allowed to spend money in these 22 areas. Because of Quebec's new proposed responsibilities, taxing powers would need to be adjusted so that the federal government collect less and the Quebec government collect more, according to the report.
As a result of its proposed changes, few areas would remain the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal government, including defence, tariffs, post,〔(Weaver et al., ''The Collapse of Canada?'' (1992) p.82 )〕 currency, equalization payments and the federal debt.〔(Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, ''Breaking Point: Timeline - 1991'' )〕
The report also made other recommendations on constitutional changes, including abolition of the Canadian Senate. The Liberal Party convention amended this proposal to call for reform of the Senate instead. The convention also approved some constitutional positions not included in the report, such as support for the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, guaranteeing anglophone rights and recognizing aboriginals as "distinct nations".〔(Richard Fidler, ''Canada adieu? Quebec debates its future'' (19991), p.50 )〕
