Canada reaches reform accord to avert Quebec secession vote
Prime Minister Brian Mulroney announced a sweeping reform package after five days of talks with provincial premiers and indigenous leaders to head off a Quebec secession referendum. Quebec’s Robert Bourassa praised the accord while Bernard Landry condemned it. The plan would overhaul Parliament, grant self-government to Indians and Eskimos, give provinces a veto on future changes, and ease inter provincial trade barriers, but still requires ratification and voter approval in Quebec, Alberta, and British Columbia.
