“More power in the hands of ordinary Albertans. That’s the point of the citizens initiative law that we just introduced…
A citizen initiative law allows citizens to force a referendum vote on an important issue if it’s being ignored by your elected representatives, by parties….
They can force a referendum vote on an amendment to the Canadian constitution. Putting Albertans ultimately in the democratic drivers seat…
This is something I committed to… Part of that fair deal means giving Albertans the ultimate say on big issues like this. Another promise made, another promise kept.”
@jkenney and @shandro, does this little refresher video answer your nonsense questions today about why people are using the very laws your government introduced to “force a referendum vote on an important issue if it’s being ignored by your elected representatives, by parties”?
How about respecting the promise you made to put Albertans in the democratic driver’s seat, and maybe taking a backseat yourselves?
Jason Kenney 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇮🇱@jkenney
We have introduced the Citizen Initiative Act to put Albertans in the driver's seat of our democracy. Following the last federal election, I committed to doing everything within our power to fight for a fair deal for Alberta, and to give Albertans a bigger say over major issues.
