The now-passed Sovereignty Act intends to prevent ‘unconstitutional’ federal government overreach into matters of provincial jurisdiction.

EDMONTON, Alberta (LifeSiteNews) — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s “Sovereignty Act” legislation was passed Thursday in the province’s legislature, despite pushback from left-wing critics including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

United Conservative Party (UCP) MLAs under Smith put their full support behind the bill to quicken its passage, which will now become law once it receives Royal Assent.
