The days ahead will be crucial.
Not just in terms of public opinion, but in terms of political culture.
Champions of human rights and the constitution must not only outnumber the premier's supporters.
They must persuade Albertans that these positions are dominant, piercing the populist bubble.

“They want to create some confusion around who gets to vote, and to limit the electorate in a way that advantages the government.”
Voters should choose governments, not the other way around.
This is a bad law, plain and simple.

The Alberta Government is framing their abdication of public health measures as fiscal responsibility.
It is far cheaper to give someone a vaccine than to keep them on a ventilator.
