>She said the decision to use the controversial clause in those instances was in part informed by the need to respond to judicial rulings she believes do not reflect the values of Albertans.
>“Do we have confidence that our judiciary is reflective of the values that we have in our province? Because most of our judiciary is appointed by the federal government, and we’ve had 10 years of judges being appointed by Justin Trudeau,” she said.
>“When you see ideology getting into these judgments and the judges, they don’t face the electorate the way we do.”
There should have been a limit on provincial use of the notwithstanding clause to prevent it’s abuse, something like one per term seems right making it the nuclear option for a sitting party.
Changes to the laws are required, not the judges.
She’d gaslight us to believe that the referee in Air Bud was the bad guy for not enforcing a rule that didn’t exist!
They’re saying „how dare the judges follow the laws we made“
Conservatives using this country’s constitution like toilet paper. It absolutely disgusts me.
One can now see the notwithstanding clause being turned into a dictator lever. A one armed bandit that always comes up 7’s.
Probably the least democratic premier the province has ever had. What’s it like being ruled by a dictator alberta?
Friendly reminder that she desperately wants to be closer to a confirmed pedophile and murderer south of the border and should be removed.
The federal government has the ability to nope this, but refuses to. It’s about time the feds step up and protect our rights, otherwise they are merely suggestions
Smith sucks, MAGA wannabe traitor
Remember when this was supposed to be the „nuclear option“?
The use of the notwithstanding clause shoukd immediately trigger a general election. It shoukd be used as the nuclear option, not an ideological one.
Its time reform the law
She’s the biggest threat to Canada we have internally
If your rights can continually be circumvented this easily without even a court, it must means you never really had those rights to begin with. They were just a privilege.
We need to show the the UCP that it is not OK to play with our charter rights on a whim.
Another problem is we seem incapable of fixing flaws in our constitution..
This woman has no understanding of how rights, or law, or any sort of modern governance by the people should be run. Fuck her.
Can we use that not withstanding clause to force her tyranny out of office? Albertans do not want or need her extremist anti Canadian values. She can go move into mar a lago where she belongs.
Danielle Smith can suck my nuts.
When your only tool for getting policy in place is overriding constitutional rights, you aren’t a good leader…
