Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says her government will table a motion next week under the Alberta Sovereignty Act that would instruct all provincial entities to refuse to enforce or prosecute matters under the federal gun buyback program.
Smith made the comments on Nov. 29 during a keynote address at her United Conservative Party’s annual convention, where she outlined her government’s priorities and next steps. She said the proposed motion would apply to all provincial entities, including municipalities and law-enforcement agencies, and would include provisions to prevent them from prosecuting Albertans “defending their homes and families from intruders.”
