Trudeau urban focus ignores municipalities in new constitution

Ottawa columnist notes Canada's draft constitution elevates federal and provincial levels while urban areas lack formal input. Urbanization outpaces rural bias, with ministers from cities underrepresented. Montreal stands out with cabinet heft. Question remains if any constitution recognizes municipal government or a House of the Federation.
