Abstract

For the time being the constitutional debate is over. In this paper, the author uses the respite to reflect on certain aspects of the debate in light of recent developments in postmodern thought. In doing so, two key concepts used in discussions about the nature of Canada — those of “language” and of “nation” are analyzed. In the course of the paper, postmodernism’s possible contribution is evaluated and found wanting.
