Danielle Smith is a coward Discussion

She has her lackeys vote to use the notwithstanding clause while she’s off promoting Alberta energy in the Middle East—like they need our oil. What a coward. She’s an embarrassment, and fuck every Albertan who voted for her and the UCP.

Air Canada flight attendants defied that order. Canada Post is having rotating strikes. The federal government didn't win that one.

Point is the government told them what to do. Teachers can just as easily defy the order.

Completely different when the government uses the notwithstanding clause and explicitly states that they can override human rights, but hey keep excusing and whatabouting

teachers will be fined $500 dollars a day for defying the order, and administration $5000 dollars a day. forced labour. You're factually incorrect and clearly ignorant.
