Alberta's United Conservative government has invoked its controversial Sovereignty Act for the first time by introducing a resolution to push back against the federal government's proposed Clean Electricity Regulations.
The resolution, tabled in the Alberta legislature Monday, instructs governments and provincial entities such as the Alberta Electric System Operator and the Alberta Utilities Commission to ignore the regulations when they come into force "to the extent legally permission."
The resolution also raises the possibility of Alberta setting up a Crown corporation to protect the private sector companies that provide electricity in the province.
The Clean Electricity Regulations, currently in draft form, lay out the rules for getting Canada's electricity grid to net zero emissions by 2035.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says the deadline is impossible for the province to meet without risking blackouts and high costs for consumers.
The government says investors are afraid of proposing new power generation projects in light of the CER. The Crown corporation could commission new natural gas-fired plants, make deals for small-scale nuclear reactors or buy existing gas-fired plants.

Not to mention that we have to have natives onboard or its no go. That was one of the issues Quebec had to deal with. There is no question the federal government would use natives to drive a stake into any vote of separation.
He could TRY, but we have fewer millitary personnel than we had, even in 1970, during the October Crisis, when we had 1/2 the population. In addition, the CAF is running VERY short in recruiting, and the equipment is worn out. (Remember, in September 2023, True-dolt and his ‘posse’ were stuck in India for several days because the RCAF airplane they were flying in, broke and they did not have a flyable replacement plane. It took two days for replacement parts to be flown in and repairs completed.)
Besides, there are quite a few Westerners in the CAF, and I don’t think too many would wish to follow any illegal orders against Alberta citizens, by Quebec Officers. Let’s not forget that many CAF members are in, for the BENEFITS. I would say that the CAF could not even muster enough ACTIVE troops to even occupy Red Deer, AB (pop. 110,000)
I am not criticisingvthe members of the CAF because they have a tough job to do. Rather, I am critical of the’perfumed princes’ occupying 101 Col. By Drive and that ashhole, Justin(e) True-dolt and his WEF-loving Cabinet.
TUCK FRUDEAU!
Solar in Canada? What a riot.
It’s a shame some of our states’ governors and legislatures don’t have the spine to do the same to the feddies’ epa under the 10th amendment.
FWIW, Jonty30, I am originally from d’Ottawa, having moved to Alberta in the early 90s. Until two years ago, I had never belonged to a political party, though I always voted Conservative, then Reform, then Alliance.
The parties I joined were WIPA and federally, Maverick Party. I am now a supporter of Alberta independence, independent from the Laurentianist ‘colonizers’.
I am familiar with Marc Lalonde, having seen him and Rocky Waterhole (Pierre Trudeau) on a ski hill at Camp Fortune, near d’Ottawa. Lalonde looked even more like a ‘fruit’ in person, than on TV. There were plenty of rumors going round that he and Rocky were ‘intimate’ friends.
The ‘colonies’ of Alberta and Saskatchewan need to GTHO of Canaduh!
Alberta and Saskatchewan need to be very forceful in their willingness to prioritize their province over the country and let the feds try and force them otherwise. Unless it’s criminal law, it will be Alberta’s law over the federal law in all things.
One thing that needs to be understood about Castreau Jr. He does not care about Canada. Him, and all other Quebec Prime Ministers are just biding their time until they have taken everything from Canada they can and they will stick Canada with the bills and unilaterally use the Office of the PM to allow Quebec to skip out scot-free. They do not mind being considered monsters in Canada, if they can be considered heroes in Quebec.
Solar can be completely extinguished by a hail storm.
Totally useless in the event of a solar occlusion.
Too much sustained wind can havoc turbines.
But do wonders for holders of stock.
True. Remember though, that Castreau is a WEF ‘true believer’. As long as ‘der Führer und Reichskanzler’ K(louse) Schwab pats him on the head and tells him what a good boy he is and how smart he is, he is willing to do ANYTHING for the globalists.
If it costs a few million Canadian deaths (including some Quebeckers), and a few billion deaths, worldwide, being the sociopath that he is, it means nothing! It is just the cost of keeping ‘gaia’ ‘healthy’.
For doing the ‘hard’ job of arranging for the deaths of a few million Canadians, he feels his multi million dollar ‘reward’, is well earned!
In Canada, electric utilities are provincially regulated, but nuclear energy is Federally regulated.
So the Fed Gov can block this forever, which it would.
Electric utilizes are Provincially regulated and under provincial jurisdiction.
Environment used to be as well, but a series of court cases now define it as “shared jurisdiction”.
Canada Fed Gov are using “environment” to move into every regulatory area. And the Courts go along because they are woke.
So Alberta just invokes the “Notwithstanding Clause” and burns Quebec with its favourite tool.
We all don’t support Ukraine though, you may want to take your support elsewhere.
Way ahead of you.
I agree they should do it.
But don’t be surprised or disappointed when the Supreme Court rules that the “Notwithstanding Clause” works different for provinces other than Quebec.
Lol! Troops in Alberta! That would make for a great comedy! A short one, but hilarious all the same.
CAF is a joke and can’t field a 10 man tent group.
Everyone has a chit so they don’t have to do pt and infantry units are less than 1/3 strength. There are no standards. Boots, hair, nothing. It’s one big bloody joke.
They have brought in 10 million foreign f#cking immigrants in the last 50 years.
And that group plus their descendants along with the existing leftists and those they groomed the Universities are enough to make any sort of legal process succession impossible.
All we can do is try to build at the local level, and wait for Regime collapse.
Any crisis in the USA Globohomo Regime will spill over into many countries.
There are so many Western countries with major successions movements, US Regime collapse would trigger them all.
I live near to Base housing for CF married officers. Half the houses are empty.
