Alberta Politics

Redford stepped down for less...

Danny won't step down as she's right and it's always someone else's fault.

Pathetic human being. I've had enough and I'm sure others have too.
It makes you wonder how much animosity she's harboured for decades over her stint as a Calgary School Board Trustee and how she still feels mistreated (even though she was one of the root causes of all of the treatment she and board received as a result of her behaviour).

 
Guthrie's letter had me wondering what the AB Party (soon to be PC party?) policy book looks like. Much to my surprise, it's not too bad.

Lowering the voting age is ambitious to say the least, but the rest of it does hit key issues at a birds-eye level. Pro-pipeline, pro-EV, capping tuition increases, predictable funding to social services, mandating that all GoA research projects be publicly accessible... We could do worse.
 
License Plate 4 (standard white with red) got my vote, in no small part because it's the closest to the current plates (excepting those Oilers/Flames/Veteran plates).

Trying to put photographs on license plates while keeping both the plate number and the photograph legible is an exercise in futility.

Yes, as well as other issues, it does make it harder to read. Here is an interesting article on this:

A National Post article which I agree with, very rare. I like the community-designed plate they highlight too. Far more tasteful.

Sounds like the Notwithstanding Clause has been invoked. Some stories were up, and then quickly scrubbed. I hope that everyone understands what this means about their charter rights. Basically, you don't have them in Alberta.
Did I see right that Smith isn't even present in the Legislature while this attempt to force contract terms on teachers is going on?
 
The right to strike can't be denied. Ever. Can the federal government (our government) ever use the Constitution to fire Danielle Smith?
No. Under the constitution provinces are not a subordinate level of government under the feds, instead they are distinct and independent. This is very different from municipalities, which are a creation of the Municipalities Act and are in fact under the whim of the province.

This sucks and labour's response will have to be proportionally severe. As a family where a teacher is our sole breadwinner, pray for us. All we want is decent class size limits like every other province!!
