TODAY, Court of King’s Bench, after hearing submissions from First Nations, ruled that the separatists’ (Alberta Prosperity Project) proposed referendum question is unconstitutional. It violates all Albertans Charter and First Nations’ treaty rights.

Premier, what now?

The courts have ruled.

And they not only rule the question is unconstitutional, but that separation requires the consent of First Nations period!

"Despite its fiduciary duty, the UCP has presided over and accelerated this degradation. And it now asks Albertans to pay again for services they have a legal right to receive.

This is not innovation. It is not modernization. It is not stewardship.

This is dereliction."
