In \u003ci\u003eSleeping Dogs\u003c\/i\u003e, Andrew McDougall reveals how a change in federalist strategy, combined with an improving political context, helped Canada stabilize its federal system and bury the \"Quebec question\" for the foreseeable future. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book identifies five potential reasons the Quebec sovereignty movement lost momentum and argues that all contributed to a political environment that benefited federalists. McDougall explores topics of elite accommodation, generational change, changing identity politics, economic globalization, and constitutional fatigue. He argues that Canada\u0026amp;#x2019;s federalist political elites have capitalized on these developments to stabilize the country by dropping the national question – even when they might still hold very different visions of the Constitution. Building on \"constitutional abeyance\" theory, the author conceives of this strategic change as the restoration of a constitutional abeyance among federalist actors. Considering recent history in light of subsequent developments, \u003ci\u003eSleeping Dogs\u003c\/i\u003e is a timely and important attempt to understand the evolving situation in Quebec and Canadian federalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e1.
