At least under this latest proposed law, there's nothing to stop the UCP from changing its name to The Close the Barn Door After the Horse Has Bolted Party.

Fuckety fuck fuck

I don't think this affects the recall petitions, just the Citizen Initiative Process: www.elections.ab.ca/recall-initi...

Gets out handy thesaurus.... Makes note to register the Feral Rose Party of Alberta for next election.

It's so oddly "particular" isn't it... Danielle Smith’s definitely not a libertarian. She's a dangerous blight on democracy in the province

Yeah, taking the power away from the (nonpartisan) chief electoral officer and putting it in the hands of a (very partisan) cabinet minister is definitely the way to go.

So: - take power from the people and give it to elected elites; and - government telling you what words you are allowed to use.

There's not going to be another election. She's crowning her self queen. We have to mobilize. She knows no shame or law anymore.

This sounds more like something put forward by a pissed off junior high school student. Petty juvenile actions meant too stifle any potential opposition.

What utter BS

Imagine if the NDP tried this.

Oh, this is bad.

I'm surprised they didn't include a Notwithstanding Clause pre-invocation.

Freedom of speech!

Smells of desperation tbh …

And now she's messing with people power...

Somehow they still don't get the whole "can't put the genie back in the bottle" thing.
