„Das ist nicht korrekt“: Kinew aus Manitoba stellt Smith aus Alberta wegen indigener Konsultationen in Frage – „Es liegt nicht an den Petitionssammlern, ihrer Konsultationspflicht nachzukommen.“ „Es liegt an Ihnen als Regierung von Alberta, Ihrer Konsultationspflicht nachzukommen“, sagte Kinew

Kinew is completely correct on this and I still don’t understand how this is something that isn’t being struck down
It increasingly feels like Danielle Smith is just in way over her head and starting to get burned by the fire she stoked and built over the last few years.
Already half of Alberta thinks she should resign and one third of her own party does. For a while it was looking like she would break the streak of conservative premiers being ousted before the next election but now I would say it’s 50/50 that she’s ultimately forced out.
Must not have been the friendliest gathering of Western premiers in recent years. Just throwing [this quote](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/western-premiers-meeting-day-2-smith-eby-9.7212224) into the mix as well:
>“Let’s remember these ports are not British Columbia’s ports, they’re Canada’s ports, and in being Canada’s ports, that means they’re our ports too,“ Smith said. „In the spirit of collaboration, that’s the attitude that all premiers should take to this.“
*That* is the attitude Smith is taking in negotiations with Carney, while none of the other premiers who should get on board with this ’spirit of collaboration‘ are even involved.
>It is not up to the petition gatherers to fulfill the duty to consult. -Wab Kinew
Right. So the court ruling quashing the petition because the petitioners didn’t consult was the incorrect call by the judge then, right? The reporting on the ruling has been awful, I really don’t understand it.
> ‚It is not up to the petition gatherers to fulfill the duty to consult. It is up to you, as the Alberta government, to fulfill the duty to consult,‘ Kinew said
Who was in court? Alberta’s government or the petition gatherers? Who’s appealing that decision?
Why would anything at all except petition gathering be the responsibility of the petition gatherers?
Even if they wanted to consult, under what authority could they strike any deal?
