Defying Lougheed Doctrine-Notwithstanding Clause

“…Good government respects the role of all three branches…”Jared Wesley

Don’t use clause against #albertateachers or others

“UCP admitting their laws not justified in a free & democratic society”

Defying the Lougheed Doctrine
The UCP's repeated use of the notwithstanding clause is fundamentally unconservative (and un-Albertan).

That is a strongly worded letter.

But they're not listening. They've got those earplugs in.

Thursday, ATA Prez @schilldawg.bsky.social had a press conference about the ATA's constitutional challenge to Bill 2.

This legal action is necessary to stand against this abuse of power.

Nicolaides said the reason the teacher advisory council is separate from the class size and complexity task force is so he can “engage directly” with frontline teachers for “any and all matters irrespective of this cabinet committee.”

Are we ever gonna discuss that it might be better for teachers to have an actual union that is separate from the professional association, rather than #ATA wearing both hats? #albertateachers #red4ed #abpoli

New today from the UCP:

Taking action on class size and complexity

A new Class Size and Complexity Cabinet Committee has been struck to address classroom challenges.

Let this sink in. The President of the United States is now appealing a court order forcing him to feed starving children.

Alberta Notwithstanding Clause used on #albertateachers will now be used on Heath Sciences Union?

Why are so many workers not satisfied with how the UCP Govt negotiates?

UCP does not support public health or education
#ableg #ABHealth #abed #cdnpoli
What is the truth?

#ABDanielleSmith uses Not Withstanding Clause & would hesitate future use?Plus trust the govt to fix things?Plus place students & teachers back in a poor environment known about for yrs.

Truth check:Will clause be used against Health Sciences Assoc.?

Word is Trump is refusing to follow a court order to pay SNAP benefits from emergency funds by Wednesday.

#UCP-MAGA and Smith refuse to follow the Constitution by invoking the Notwithstanding Clause.

#UCP is in the same head space as MAGA.

Resist.

🧵 In 1 week, the #UCP & Premier Danielle Smith (and #Lethbridge East MLA Nathan Neudorf), have invoked the NWC to end the teachers' strike & Charter Rights, fired the Auditor General investigating UCP corruption & cut $$ to Elections Alberta as recall petitions start circulating. 👇 1/5

Get involved!

If your #UCP-MAGA MLA voted to use the notwithstanding clause to erase human rights, demand a recall.

Here's how: tinyurl.com/bdfx5jkf

Pass it ON!

Alberta Forcing Teachers Back To Work Is A Historic Loss
Premier Danielle Smith has used the ‘notwithstanding clause’ to shield the strike-breaking bill from a court challenge.

On Facebook, of all places. 100+ comments of wonderful stories and memories, and some people connecting with the teachers they're referring to in their posts.

You're correct. But not only public service unions, she'll erase Charter rights inconvenient to #UCP agenda & ideology.

No Albertans' are safe now. What's next? Marital status? Ethnicity? LGBTQ rights? #ableg #abed #abpoli #UCP-MAGA #albertateachers #notwithstanding

So ugly. So dangerous.

$11.5 billion. That's how much Australia's teachers contribute in unpaid labour every year.

Our teachers are overworked, undervalued and facing increasingly difficult and unsafe classroom conditions.

It's no wonder they're abandoning the profession in droves. #WorldTeachersDay
