This document appears to be a draft page from a manuscript or memoir (likely by Alan Dershowitz, given the document source context) recounting a historical meeting. It describes Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau invoking the War Measures Act in response to Quebec separatism and convening a group of experts, including the author (the only non-Canadian present) and Irwin Cotler, at an isolated resort to discuss the law's implementation.
