The UCP is starting to panic.
Demetrios Nicolaides sent an email begging volunteers to fight his recall petition. He warns complacency could "topple our government".
Don't threaten me with a good time.

Bill 2: The Back to School Act (what a monstrous and arrogant title) is missing a Preamble.
Here's my suggestion.
WHEREAS the government of Alberta doesn't give a fig for the Charter rights of teachers or the rights of teachers under Alberta's own Bill of Rights

I would add, and this is important, that the protection of minority rights is often unpopular. Especially for minority groups that are very small in population and are vulnerable. That is why protecting minority rights in Charter was so important.

Chills. Thousands of Alberta high school students walked out of class to the legislature. They’re fighting back against UCP attacks on education. They’re standing up for teachers. They’re our future and I couldn’t be prouder.

The canary in the coal mine has died.
Around the world, authoritarianism is taking hold of once strong democracies. If we ignore the seeds being planted in our own legislature, it will be at our peril.
Using Notwithstanding in this way is a BIG step over a "do not cross" line
