The Charter is not just a law, it is an expression of Canada’s most basic and deepest values. “Notwithstanding” the Charter means “I don’t share these values”. Any and every politician or government that proposes its use should face such an extreme backlash that no one would dare consider it.

"The Party of Hate" hates only hatred, and is not tolerant of intolerance. We want a better future, and we need to stand up for it! Silence is complicity under fascism.
PS. they missed two very important parts from the left column: "Democracy" and "Free Speech". Preserving these is exactly how we fight fascism.
A little louder for those in the back: Antifa is a DEMOCRATIC movement. It is repressed by authority and violence.

Canadian Press (CP) is reporting tonight, based on a leaked memo, that the Alberta government is preparing to invoke the notwithstanding clause to strip rights from LGBQT students. It’s time for Albertans to stand up for justice - just as they did the first time Alberta invoked the clause. https://albertaviews.ca/stripping-away-rights/ #ableg #abpoli

And with that bus lane, tha bus is avoiding the traffic jam and getting people to their destinations faster and more reliably than the cars. Without it, we induce traffic. When we don't invest in active transportation, that bus gets stuck in the resulting induced traffic, which makes people think it's not a viable mode of transport for them, thus inducing more and more traffic, causing worse congestion for all.
Remember when you're stuck in construction in Edmonton, that the entire reason roads are being shut down all a once is because we are DECADES behind on sustainable infrasteucture for a growing city. We can only induce so much automobile traffic before our streets shut down, and we reached that point decades ago... but continued on despite because our freedom of transportation and the safety of those who use it, was politicized. If not for the wedge politics against active transportation lanes, this could have been spreadnot over decades, and did not need to be disruptive.
If you are railing against transportation alternatives, then you have no right to complain about traffic congestion. Traffic isnnot caused by construction. Construction is caused by traffic.

This is a catalyst of greater discussion here in Canada - the destruction of local media has decimated local decision making.
Gone are the days of local news offices and we need folks to resurrect it away from Postmedia.
I think we can re-democratize local media if they have the support.
