I had absolutely nothing to do with the $100+ million DynaLife lab service debacle.

Except when I represented them as a lobbyist to the UCP while I was president of the Alberta Enterprise Group which they were members.

“The decision to override Charter rights fails this test.”

The Anglican, Lutheran and United Churches in Alberta have written to Danielle Smith condemning her use of the notwithstanding clause to punch down on the vulnerable Albertans.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

The 2025 fall session of the Alberta legislature will come to be known, infamously, as the Notwithstanding Session.
I hope that it will also give rise to what will be known as the Notwithstanding General Strike.
The Charter shd protect the rights of minorities not the bigotry of the majority

It’s all been used as a weapon and nobody remembers that trans people are people- like all people- someone’s child, someone’s friend, someone’s partner. In short, someone. and like all “someones” they are entitled to freedom and respect and rights and dignity.

Moments ago, Premier Danielle Smith's government made a terrifying decision and introduced legislation to suspend the charter-protected rights of transgender young people in Alberta.

Now is the time to act. Visit www.stop-smith.ca to sign our petition denouncing this draconian erosion of freedom.

transactionalberta.ca/direct-message Today, mere days before Trans Day of Remembrance, the UCP used the Notwithstanding clause to force through a law that restricts the rights of Two Spirit, trans, and gender-diverse young people. The action is harsh, cruel, and targeted. Please stand against this:
URGENT: Send a Direct Message to the Premier
Now is the time to act. The Premier is about to introduce harmful anti-trans legislation early next week.

Resent the UCP's use of the Notwithstanding Clause? (If you don't, you should.) Call the premier at 780-427-2251 and press 2. Tell the nice receptionist that you oppose using the Notwithstanding Clause to override Albertans' rights.
Leave a messages if no one answers.

I might quibble with the either/or thing, but otherwise this is 100% correct. What a dreadful government.
Use of the notwithstanding clause is a betrayal of the duty of a government to its people. If you can't enact your agenda without violating the rights of your citizens, you are either stupid and unimaginative or vicious and cruel.
