The "Common Ground: Renewing the Federal Partnership in Quebec and the West" workshop explored, among other things, the prospect for building new bridges between Quebec and the West. This prospect raises two interesting conceptual questions: what is being used to build the bridge, and who is doing the building? My contribution to this bridge-building discussion focuses less on the building materials and more on who is doing the building, and on the durability of the bridge in the face of emergent challenges.

Federal theory and federal scholarship have paid little attention to the role of local communities and their governments, which receive scant recognition in the constitutional and institutional arrangements of mature federal systems such as Australia, Canada, and the United States. However, local governments have become extensively entangled in the fiscal relations and social service delivery of federal political systems. Moreover, it can be argued that localities in general and international cities in particular will play a more important role in the decades to come. This role may be particularly pronounced in emergent federal systems. It is important, therefore, to bring local communities and their governments into play as we try to understand the evolving nature of federal governance.
