Letter from Minister of Justice Kim Campbell to Chief Justice Antonio Lamer dated 19 December 1991 re Charlottetown Accord. These letters are both referenced on page 25 of Martin L.

Their subject as described by Professor Friedland is political lobbying for inclusion of a provision in the Charlottetown Accord. There is no indication that the matters involve legal advice or cabinet confidences.
