Amnesty International Canada condemns Alberta government’s use of notwithstanding clause in Bill 2
Alberta's use of the notwithstanding clause in Bill 2 means that courts won’t be able to strike down the law even if it violates the Charter.

The Notwithstanding Clause is a political golden ticket that allows a provincial government to ignore the Charter of Rights & Freedoms
I guarantee you by tolerating this, we open the door for the day they come for you
When instead, we should be warning Premier Smith that this door swings back hard
