  1. Is the bill going to the people to vote for? Is there going to be a complicated clause that requires a supermajority to actually amend it?

  2. The bill has no teethe in law. She’s just pandering to her lunatic whacko supporters. And it annoys a lot of reasonable people

    Her political senses are weird.

    Brad Wall would never do something dumb like this.

      1. Nah it’s all you clowns that are the weirdos. Have you watched your weirdo Trump cult leader lately? The guys got galloping dementia. But you weirdos will follow that whackjob blindly and unthinkingly because you are dumb and thick and stupid as ship

    1. To j, goulding:

      So freedom and individual rights are not your thing.

      You likely favor bill C 293, right?

      1. Freedom, individual rights plus bodily autonomy and medical rights. My question is why isn’t the Saskatchewan Party adding bodily autonomy and the right to refuse medical procedures without discrimination in our provincial bill of rights? The Saskatchewan Party’s policy of segregation and discrimination based on vaccine status was a violation of human rights, they should admit and correct their error in judgment.

    2. You’re correct. The bill has no teeth. There’s no short cut around paramountcy. Plus, they seem to have not thought about existing case law and active changes made by recent UCP bills.

      The existing property rights clause in the Alberta Bill of Rights is mostly tested against bylaws for land use planning at municipalities. Interestingly a strengthened property rights clause would probably end-run the province on solar installation limitations on private land (or engender substantial payouts). All this with no plan to overcome the constitutional reality of environmental law and regulations.

      Enumerating gun rights in AB will be wiped out by the Federal Fire Arms Act (which is paramount over any AB law) https://decisions.scc-csc.ca/scc-csc/scc-csc/en/item/1794/index.do

      This is not the win the gun rights proponents think it is. At best it’s political theatre. At worst is solidifies the anti-gun vote in the cities and reduces the capacity of the right to win in urban Alberta.

      However, the Left will be pleased that addicts will have new grounds to decline or request new forms of health care – including declining detox stays.

      I believe in rights, but this is not gonna do what people think it will do.

      1. Agreed to all of that. But any court decision based on the Charter or the Constitution can be set aside by the Notwithstanding Clause.

      2. Sure there is a short cut around paramountcy. Just ask Quebec. And as for gun rights, remember when Quebec was going to start up its own gun registry after the gong show from Ottawa cratered? They did so by saying guns are “property”….which is within provincial jurisdiction.

    3. Well the same thing could be said about Pierre Turdo’s charter, nobody cares nor believes its any more than a poorly written epistle equivalent to a piece of paper towel, with a gob of fecal matter on it.

    4. Quebec has its own constitution. Why can’t Alberta?
      And I suppose a right to your own personal bodily autonomy would be weird for somebody from the left… just a minute… I hear the phone ringing. Oh, it’s the local abortion rights supporter. It’s for you!

  3. Now do something to establish FREE SPEECH in Canada. And get completely RID of any idiotic “Hate” speech laws.

  4. One can hope anybody who votes NDP/Liberal/Green/or has “progressive” values who have moved to AB, because the benefits outweigh what they experienced in their previous home provinces, will move back. Please move back and you can ‘Karen’ to your heart’s content.
    Any long term Albertan who feels like the LLB above can move as well.
    Your anti-human ideals are not appreciated in Alberta.

    Albertan born (& raised in a socialist home) who thankfully saw the light in my early 20’s.

  5. But the LLb. does bring up a serious issue; does the Bill have any legal weight or will it be nullified by the Federal government or the Courts?
    Bodily autonomy also guarantees a woman the right to an abortion.

    Sounds good, but does it make any difference?

    1. It can be nullified by the Courts. Unless such nullification is set aside by use of the Notwithstanding Clause.

    2. Well, there IS the Quebec Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Funny that Quebec can have one but nobody else can.

      The Québec Charter is a fundamental law that takes precedence over other laws, and according to the Supreme Court, possesses a quasi-constitutional status. Article 52 holds that no provision of any statute, even subsequent to the Charter, can go against articles 1 to 38, unless that statute expressly states that it applies in spite of the Charter.

    1. Some vaccines are very scary. Others actually work. By the way, it has always been a right to not be vaccinated in schools.

    2. “So schools won’t have the right to demand require your kids to be vaccinated?
      Vaccines are scary, aren’t they?”

      Only the ones that are rushed to market, cut corners in testing and use unproven technology.

      1. See what I mean. Here I am, talking about kool-aid, and you think I’m talking about vaccines.

      2. Most of them.
        Funny how autism was not a thing till about the mid 1950’s…
        No correlation right…yea as if

        No New born requires ANY Vaccinations whatsoever.
        MOTHERS MILK is all thats warranted.

        I would not that PHARMA has to Date not Created a CURE for AnYTHING..

        But you go boyo…vaxx yerself to th max,
        I ain’t playin that game…and I’m not even going to start with the garbage thats put into food..

  6. The only real protection from the federal gov’t of Canada seizing your property is to have Alberta / Sask. separate from the orbit of Ottawa and enact a bill of rights which restricts gov’t being able to decide which rights you actually have.

    They’ve had +150 years to repair the constitution and its cast in place inadequacies. Perhaps in the future after we separate, old Canada can make an offer to which we can put to a vote, but waiting for old Canada to get this right has no guarantee that they’ll get it right within the next 150 years.
    Failure is what tier 2 Canada does best.

    Also, placing “LLB” behind your name here at SDA? how embarrassing….

  7. You would think these things would be a given in a free country.. Vaccinations? Over all the threat determines the demand.. As well as its effectiveness.. Reality doesn’t need a government program.. Personal property speaks for itself and everybody deserves access to firearms.. Not just criminals and terrorists..

    Perfect, no.. But far better than being a socialist farm animal..

  8. Do they have a jab that protects you against French language laws?

    Asking for a friend.

  9. Long LONG overdue for a Cessation Election Danielle.

    This Carpetbagging crap has to come to an end.
    We send Multi Billions to the EAST annually and what do we get in return…?
    EASTERN French derived ARROGANCE & disdain.

    F em all.
    TIME to declare we are a Sovereign Nation.
    Draft a Constitution based on the US Model incl: 1st & 2nd amendments + GUARANTEED PROPERTY RIGHTS…. along with an OUTRIGHT Ban on Public Service Unions.

    MAGA…!! (ALBERTA)

  10. This is nothing but warm fuzzy good old word salad and a make-work project for lawyers until it is ruled unconstitutional…in about 8 years. The Feds rule, the Provinces administrate, you know.

  11. Guns are property. The AB government is completely within it’s jurisdiction to address these tools under property rights to protect their citizens from the heavy hand of the federal government.

    Never in the history of this country have we had a Premier of a province who understands property rights like Danielle Smith.

  12. Medicare started in Saskatchewan, and eventually infected the entire country.
    Provincial rights should reflect diversity, which is are strength.

  13. If one is going to live in an autocratic oligarchy anyway, Canada is the very last place to be. Crap healthcare, crippling taxes, sexual degenerates and enviro nutjobs run the government, runaway inflation. Heck I imagine this is what it would be like living under a FARC government in Columbia, or living under the campus Leftist nutjobs in El Savador. Except with shit food and even shittier weather!
