“The ...Act will only be used when Alberta’s legislative assembly debates AND passes a motion that identifies a specific federal program or piece of legislation as unconstitutional or causing harm to Albertans.”
Soooo, until the legislature debates AND passes a motion the federal order is in effect? This is a rubber stamp for edicts from their federal government. Empty words.
I don’t think your comment makes sense.
I believe that Alberta lacks a province-wide police force. The RCMP, under the control of their federal government, handles policing matters, although cities like Calgary have their own police forces. There are no elected sheriffs in Canada. Income taxes are handled by the Federal government, with the provinces receiving a share of the revenues. Provincial authorities do not have an equivalent to the American National Guard, as all military matters are under Federal control. In summary, provincial premiers and parliaments in Canada have far less power than do American state governments and legislatures.
