This title isn’t the same as the article for starters. and it’s not stopping anyone from running in the election you just need to actually want to represent the community in which you’re running.
Guaranteed Charter appeal that will not be subject to the notwithstanding clause. Conservatives sure do love shovelling public revenue for lawyers to defend pointless culture war pablum.
I don’t like the longest ballot group, sooner or later they’re antics will result in liberal ballot access being constrained, but they don’t even operate provincially, nothing Danielle Smith could do will slow them down, this an expensive solution to a different level of government’s problem.
There can be reasonable limits to Section 3 of the Charter. However, I don’t have very high expectations of the UCP given their recent excitement to use Section 33. The lack of immediate details would suggest they have no idea what to do because they can’t apply the NWC to Section 3.
>Government house leader Joseph Schow says the changes will ensure only those who, in his words, “truly care and are serious about representing a community” will be put on the ballot.
It must give them a migraine trying to self rationalize this while their federal counterparts had to run Pierre in that joke of a byelection. The hypocrisy of conservative politicians never fails to astonish me. There is always a new low to sink to.
I’d support a measure that says that a candidate has to either live in the riding they’re running in or even further that they had to have lived in that riding for the 12 months prior to election day.
That would at least stop parachute candidates.
Knowing the way Alberta is, it’s probably going to be a lot stupider.
