Description
This paper examines the often-ignored prorogation of 1873, the evolution of the governor general's reserve power over time, and the fundamental differences between dissolution and prorogation. It concludes that the Macdonald-Dufferin prorogation of 1873 serves as the relevant case for the Harper-Jean prorogation of 2008, rather than the off-cited King-Byng Affair of 1926, and that the governor general's reserve power does not apply to prorogation. **********
