Canada: Danielle Smith vs. Canadian Unity and Democracy
In my considered opinion, Danielle Smith and the self-described United Conservative Party are going to war against the Canadian constitution here. Whether they believe that of what they're doing or not. That is the consequence of what they call "the Alberta Sovereignty Within a United Canada Act".
I am minded of Timothy Snyder's 17th piece of advice from On Tyranny: "Listen for dangerous words". For some additional context:

Am I wrong to worry in this way?
