OTTAWA - With Conservative Premiers now freely using S. 33 to overrule any court ruling getting in the way of their agenda the federal government has announced plans to rename The Charter Of Rights & Freedoms to The Charter Of Long-Term Goals & General Guidelines
OTTAWA - The nation’s Provincial Premiers are hoping to use this moment of international strife and calamity to work in a few more Charter violations using The Notwithstanding Clause while no one is looking.
@AnthonyFStevens If the Scottish Government #ScotGov can't get a #Section33 to run a referendum, and the UK Supreme Court won't allow #Holyrood to call one, then civil society will just have to do it.
Under Chapter 1, Article 1, Paragraph 2 of the United Nations Charter, we clearly have the right, and that right clearly overrides Westminster law or UK Supreme Court decisions.
