@CHEK_News How about telling us what the vote was and who voted which way. Sort of important.

Dear me. May I propose a reality tv show in which we force a bunch of constitutional law profs to watch this on repeat until there's only one who hasn't left the room screaming and muttering to themselves.

Danielle Smith when asked if the Sovereignty Act will stop a federal emissions cap... First nods, and then explains that the Sovereignty Act is a notwithstanding clause for Alberta to use on federal legislation it doesn't want. (It's not) #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

What will Canadians who support Trump say when he slaps a 10 or 20% tariff on all Canadian exports to the US, if he wins? (75% of our exports go to the US)

This is also nonsense. Carbon capture technology has been under development since Harper took office. Quest, for example, started operations (with federal $) in 2015. And the new tax credit for carbon capture projects was part of this federal year's budget.

From Don Braid's latest column. Per-barrel emissions in the oil sands are actually *up* since 2018, while the methane reduction target was implemented by the Alberta NDP. And if the companies know they need to take "serious" action, why are they resisting it so strenuously?

You cannot invoke the notwithstanding clause to immunize yourself or your province from the application of federal law. Either Don Braid doesn't know this, which is disqualifying, or he does and decided to write that constitutional chemtrail anyway, which might be worse.

It would send a powerful message indeed: that whoever thought it was a good idea was a blithering idiot.

How can you write about politics for decades and have absolutely no idea how our country works? @calgaryherald, please correct this nonsense.

Oh, and the coverage that just passively amplifies the Alberta government/industry studies that have been debunked and unpacked? You're not doing journalism --- you're doing stenography.

Flashback to when the mob in San Francisco took down the statue of Ulysses S Grant, the Union general who won the civil war and freed the slaves.
