In Canada's case, we've had two national referendums on amending the constitution since 1982. Both failed.
We asked and got Britain to pass the Canada Act which gave up their ability to modify our constitution (since they originally created it). And then Canada passed (minus Quebec...) the Constitution Act (1982) which gave us a system that defined a way to amend the constitution, but with conditions that make doing so impossible.

I just saw my mistake in this. For the Latin pedants out there, yes, Canada has had two national referenda on the subject.
