The Charter is not just a law, it is an expression of Canada’s most basic and deepest values. “Notwithstanding” the Charter means “I don’t share these values”. Any and every politician or government that proposes its use should face such an extreme backlash that no one would dare consider it.

"Public funds must be used for public benefit, not private enrichment. #PremierSmith has been clear that this is a three part deal, and #Edmonton won’t receive anything unless the #Katz group agrees. This is simply wrong."

Oh, boo hoo,hoo! My heart pumps pure purple piss! And that’s an old Alberta expression. Wipe that orange stain off your mouth and join the rest of the Canadian patriots! I’m a born and raised Albertan farm lady. That’s not the way I was raised to be!! Oh, and if you want to be American, b’bye!

This is from June 12, 2016, not current. It shows how flexible our govern ... premier is in her morality though. Although I guess that really does suit her for Republican party membership.

Wildrose 'coup' bid pushes party toward social conservative fringe, former leader Danielle Smith says

Like this article? rabble is reader-supported journalism. Chip in to keep stories like these coming. A powerful, social conservative cabal within the Wildrose Party is determined to do anything it can to prevent Alberta's Official Opposition from moving close enough to the political centre to have a realistic chance of forming government, the party's former leader says.

A summary of the AHS scandal. The UCP are living up to their nickname, the United Corruption Party.

#PremierSmith and her #UCP government have not just become a liability to Canada in this crisis precipitated by Mr. Trump’s election victory in November. If you happen to be one of the many Albertans who hope Pierre Poilievre’s #Conservatives will win the next Canadian federal election, she has become a liability to you as well. After all, like it or not, in politics, guilt by association is a thing.”
