History
On 7 June 1991 the Nova Scotia House of Assembly created the all-party Working Committee on the Constitution. Its purpose was to identify the range of constitutional options acceptable to Nova Scotians. Eric Kierans was appointed chair. The committee published a discussion paper intended to assist Nova Scotians in making informed decisions on constitutional matters. It held public hearings and distributed questionnaires to solicit the views of Nova Scotians on constitutional issues. The committee submitted its final report on 28 November 1991.
