  • Constitutional Peace, Political Order, Or Good Government? Organizing Scholarly Views on the 2008 Prorogation
    Canadian Political Science Review Vol. 8, No. 1, 2014, 102-125 Constitutional Peace, Political Order, or Good Government? Organizing Scholarly Views on the 2008 Prorogation Johannes Wheeldon Norwich University - Email address: [email protected] Abstract: This paper reports the views of 25 constitutional scholars on the 2008 prorogation. A large majority of scholars agree that the Governor General had discretion in 2008 to refuse the Prime Minister. Most hold that the 2008 prorogation harmed principles of responsible government, and a majority favour the development of a cabinet manual to outline roles and responsibilities to avoid future crises. Based on the survey data, I propose four unique schools of thought on this event, and consider how future research can test, assess, and further refine these findings. Keywords: Prorogation; Canada; Constitutional scholars; Mixed methods Résumé: Cet article rapporte les points de vue de 25 constitutionnalistes sur la prorogation de 2008. Une vaste majorité convient que la Gouverneure Générale disposait de l'autorité de la refuser au Premier Ministre. La plupart soutiennent que la prorogation de 2008 a mis à mal le principe de responsabilité gouvernementale, et la majorité favorise la mise sur pied d'un "manuel de cabinet" précisant les rôles et responsabilités, de manière à éviter de futures crises. Sur la base des données de l'enquête, l'auteur montre qu'existent 4 écoles de pensée distinctes sur l'événement, et considère comment les recherches futures peuvent tester, évaluer, et raffiner ces résultats. Mots-clés: prorogation, Canada, constitutionnalistes, approches variées Acknowledgements: I would like to acknowledge the assistance of the editors of CPSR, and thank those who participated in this project, and especially those who waived anonymity.
