Even if you’re celebrating the government ordering teachers back to work, this move by the Alberta government is a serious assault on Canadian’s protected charter rights.

Expect more to follow.

//Section 33 can only be used to override sections 2, and 7–15. Those cover the “fundamental,” “legal” and “equality” rights.

Those sections include some of the Charter's key principles, such as the:

freedom of expression
freedom of religion
freedom of association
protection against unreasonable search and seizure
right to legal counsel and habeas corpus
protection against cruel and unusual punishment
protection from discrimination by the government//

I better see all those convoy folks out in the streets standing up to this tyranny. 👀
