	(QUEBEC CITY) Quebec Premier Robert Bourassa is hinting that
electoral motives may be behind the B-C Premier's shift on the Meech
Lake agreement.
	Premier Bourassa says there's nothing new with a political leader
in Canada saying we should improve the constitutional deal.  But he says
that must be done in the second round of negotiations.  
	The Meech Lake agreement is increasingly unpopular in British
Columbia.  Bourassa appears to see motives for Vander Zalm's moves, but
he says he doesn't want to comment on a politician who might be facing
an election pretty soon.
	Quebec Inter-governmental Affairs Minister Gil Remillard sees no
threat.  He says Vander Zalm is likely trying to find a solution to the
accord.
	Remillard says it is not negative to want improvements to the
constitutional agreement.
