Carney can't claim he working for all Canadians after this. He's pitted Canadians against each other.
Premier Eby looks so sad, he is fighting Mark Carney (for all of us) with everything he’s got: #bcpoli

Carney is a snake
David Eby is going to flip his lid, and I don't blame him. Carney and Smith just did to BC what Putin and Trump are doing to Ukraine... negotiate without him. Hooo boy, this is going to get hairy. #abpoli #bcpoli #cdnpoli

So is Mark Carney going to go along with the suspension of human rights by MAGA government in Alberta?
You cant' do nation-building by allowing an autocratic government to suspend the charter rights of citizens.
Just say no Mark.
it's pretty straightforward.

By using the notwithstanding clause pre-emptively - which, again, they *can* but *need not* do - the UCP is not simply admitting that their laws are breaching Charter rights and bypassing the courts.
They are further admitting that their laws cannot be justified in a free and democratic society.

“Let’s just list some. A Westminster system of government. A Crown. Single-payer public health-care system, a managerial state and Aboriginal rights, you have to get rid of all of these things. And of all those things, perhaps the elephant in the room is Aboriginal rights.” 😡
