“Courts may be the only real check on a premier's power. This is especially true when members of her own party willingly give up their own power to hold her government to account in the legislature.”

Real conservatives respect and defend courts
Danielle Smith does not, and that's democratically dangerous.

Great post! Not only are we not alone (by looking at some recent protests and petitions), there are 24 UCP MLAs facing recall. That is why #RecallSmith is getting more unhinged every day. #ABPoli #ABleg #Cdnpoli

Canadians outside Alberta, pay particular attention. If Smith succeeds, she will infect other provinces with "ungoverning."

If you ever feel yourself looking south of the border to the U.S. and thinking “why aren’t Americans in the streets over the destruction of their democratic institutions,” you can look no further than your own backyard in Alberta for the answer.

We are there. What will YOU do to show your dissent?
This is among the most democratically dangerous things Danielle Smith has said.

She wants to remove all checks and balances on her power and projects herself as the embodiment of "the people."

We have left the realm of liberal democracy in this province.
Smith doubled down on her anti court rhetoric today...

She even seemed to suggest that federally appointed judges couldn't render impartial rulings and that she believed her interpretation should always be above theirs.

The fact that regular conservatives have allowed fascists & separatists to control & rule them & tell them what is acceptable is pretty wild.

I would say Smith and Ford are definitely breaking their respective provinces - Albertans appear to be waking up, I’m more than a tad worried about Ontarians.
Danielle Smith isn’t trying to govern—she’s ungoverning. Inspired by MAGA and Project 2025, the goal is to weaken public services until the state breaks. Alberta is the test case.

Nothing indicates future corruption like passing a law to give yourself immunity from your actions under the guise of "official duties"
#ableg #abpoli
Another change proposed in the bill is to give Alberta’s justice minister immunity from sanctions from the Law Society of Alberta, which regulates lawyers, for any actions they perform as part of their “official duties” — a term not defined in the legislature.

The UCP has given away a rightful inheritance of subsequent generations, something Lougheed valued and wanted to protect from predatorial fascists.

How much money did Rinehart give the UCP to look the other way. The Eastern Slopes are the legacy of every Albertan, and indeed, every Canadian. They should remain pristine with no further damage to the watershed. Peter Lougheed knew that and legislated it be left that way. UCP failed by cancelling
