A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

For those who don't know Danielle Smith, her thing is proposing terrible bills to make headlines. Alberta is not allowed to ignore Federal laws. Saying you plan to ignore them is just a way to get attention, and the Federal law she's planning to ignore doesn't even exist yet. It's proposed legislation.

She has also said she wants to replace Federal police with a provincial police force and replace Federal pensions with a provincial pension. She scores political points for saying she'll defy anything the Federal government does, which is literally what the Sovereignty Act is about. It's a statement saying she can ignore any Federal laws if she doesn't like it, and it was the first Act she passed after she was elected.
