Defying the Lougheed Doctrine The UCP's repeated use of the notwithstanding clause is fundamentally unconservative (and un-Albertan).

Defying Lougheed Doctrine-Notwithstanding Clause

“…Good government respects the role of all three branches…”Jared Wesley

Don’t use clause against #albertateachers or others

“UCP admitting their laws not justified in a free & democratic society”

But they're not listening. They've got those earplugs in.

Nicolaides said the reason the teacher advisory council is separate from the class size and complexity task force is so he can “engage directly” with frontline teachers for “any and all matters irrespective of this cabinet committee.”

#ABEd #AlbertaTeachers

Are we ever gonna discuss that it might be better for teachers to have an actual union that is separate from the professional association, rather than #ATA wearing both hats? #albertateachers #red4ed #abpoli

New today from the UCP:

Taking action on class size and complexity

A new Class Size and Complexity Cabinet Committee has been struck to address classroom challenges.

Word is Trump is refusing to follow a court order to pay SNAP benefits from emergency funds by Wednesday.

#UCP-MAGA and Smith refuse to follow the Constitution by invoking the Notwithstanding Clause.

#UCP is in the same head space as MAGA.

Resist.

Alberta Forcing Teachers Back To Work Is A Historic Loss Premier Danielle Smith has used the ‘notwithstanding clause’ to shield the strike-breaking bill from a court challenge.

'The question before the labour movement then is this: How much longer are we willing to comply with a legal regime wherein governments treat our rights as optional?' #AlbertaTeachers
