All efforts at change have failed. Finally, a government has come along that is determined to succeed in the task. The Conservative government under Prime Minister Stephen Harper proposes to shorten the term of senators as well as elect them. But the government is running into strong political headwinds."--Cover Výrazy tezauru národní parlament * Kanada * horní komora * ústavní právo * změna ústavy * dějiny Klasifikační znaky 0421 - Parlament ISBN 978-1-55339-190-6 Copy count 1, currently available 1 Document kind Sborníky Call number Location Info F 79415 EXH - externí sklad Holešovice
