This is an unprecedented attack on workers. And it is a direct assault on our democracy.

Glad I don't have to go to school, these days. Good luck, kids...

The notwithstanding clause in literally in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

What about the rights of the students, good kids who want to learn. Covid and this, you failed them and that we can’t tolerate any longer. It isn’t an attack, it’s compassion for the children and their rights. Be adults and be teachers.

It's been done before by the federal government... give it a rest Children have a right to an education. & @ABDanielleSmith put the Children first. This is exactly what the majority of Albertans voted for.👏👏👏

Why didn’t you do anything when the ferderal government did this to the postal workers?

No it isn't. You were offered a fair deal and using our children as political pawns. Suffer.

The governments ear is lost when this happens.

Students ALSO have a right to be in school!! Shut up heather!! There are 2 sides!! Yes teachers and yes students Danielle has to make a decision. These kids have already lost a lot!!

But its all about the children, right?

Last time I checked, you ran for a FEDERAL seat, and schools are a PROVINCIAL responsibility.... you just can't figure out what lane you should be in, can you??

And how many students/ children are not in school! Your an Idiot and I hope your party sinks to the bottom of the oil sands!

No, if the charter is part of our democracy, so too is the notwithstanding clause.

You are pathetic

@GeraldL21698589 Typical NDP talking points.

The ATA is the villain in this story, not the province, not the teachers. They take in $70 million a year from those 51000 teachers, yet they don’t have strike pay coverage. I bet that most of the teachers are secretly praying for @ABDanielleSmith to use section 33, so they can go back to work and get paid, without being cancelled by the union, or risk being sanctioned by their regulatory body. We’ve witnessed enough lawfare in the past 10 years, to know what the ATA would do.

Sit down. You sure as hell didn't seem to mind when Trudeau used back to work legislation THREE TIMES Heather. You unCanadian traitors kept him in power anyway. We'd be telling a very different story if not for you and your self absorbed party.

Fuck off.

@CatRoussel I don’t often agree with the Conservatives in these replies but on this point they are absolutely correct. Section 33 is part of the Charter. It lasts 5 years for a reason. If the good folks of Alberta don’t like it they can elect an NDP government. Let’s see if they do.

Hamas Heather says what? 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Imagine being in outrage over this but you did nothing but hold up the liberals when they forced the dock workers, rail workers and postal workers back to work. You're a fake.

Government employees shouldn't be able to strike in the first place

Typical NewDiaperPreferred member! Whine hard and blame everyone else because nobody wants to pay for your bullshit.

Oh my god - cry harder NDP!!! This is obviously not for the kids now is it. You guys disgust me!

if they are on strike and not actually working, why do you call them workers? They are strikers.

Hysterical. Public service unions have a monopoly on labour and regularly extort more from tax payers.

Great work in lowering the development of our children's education by striking for a month. Its never about the kids, it's always about you!

Who elected you to the Alberta Legislature? Absolutely no one that’s who.Take a seat Heather, no one cares what you have to say and it’s none of your business.

Stfu Heather. Useless ass politician

Marxists like you are a direct assault on our democracy.

Ahhhhhhhhh. The Democracy card. Can you tell me when I voted to have teachers go on strike? I must have missed that ballot casting. Please tell me when every Albertan was asked to vote on this strike.

Well sweetie, you've been supporting other hostage takers... this is no different. These teachers are holding parents and children hostage. Its disgusting.

We are furious that our kids have been off school for 3 weeks because of your stupid dysfunctional teachers union. Stop complaining and get back to work.

You're mispronouncing bureaucracy. It sounds like you're saying democracy.
