We have an independent Electoral Boundaries Commission in Alberta. Governing parties do not have the ability to unilaterally change riding boundaries to suit its electoral interests.

@markusoff That was back when there was only one, pretty much entirely urban, Medicine Hat seat.

Once in government, the NDP split Medicine Hat in half, in a gerrymander attempt to create two mostly urban seats, and ended up losing both.

@maxfawcett @dave_church You can also add The Road to Wigan Pier and Down and Out in Paris and London. Along with a devotion to facts, his works drew attention to the plight of the working class. I wholeheartedly share your frustration that he is so often invoked in support of conservative ideals.

The "Alberta Sovereignty Act" is the first step of the so-called "Free Alberta Strategy" - a flagrantly unconstitutional plan to seize powers expressly outside the purview of the Province, trying to subvert the institutions that would ordinarily limit the government's power.

@SeanBawden @TheLawofWork Thanks, Sean, appreciate that.

We have heard counsel for some fed-regulated employers taking the position that CLC confers exclusive jurisdiction, acting as a bar to civil claims. I've been unable to find any case law applying s 246 which directly refutes this.

One lesson from the convoy scandal should be that the spread of legal misinformation online in the last 20 years (Sovereign Citizen/Freemen of the Land, etc) is not harmless. It has grown to an epidemic delusion that threatens public order.
