Danielle Smith Says Courts Have Gone Too Far By Continuing To Recognize Indigenous Peoples Exist

, , , ,

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced Friday she is open to rewriting parts of the Constitution after a judge ruled the province could not legally hold an independence referendum without consulting First Nations, forcing Alberta to briefly confront the horrifying possibility that treaties may have been intended to mean something.

Smith called Section 35 “dangerously open-ended,” warning courts have spent decades recklessly expanding Indigenous rights far beyond their original constitutional purpose of being acknowledged once a year before immediately approving another pipeline.

“I don’t understand how citizens are expected to consult First Nations before dismantling the country built on their treaties,” said Smith, visibly frustrated that Canada’s legal system continues to contain archived copies of history.

The premier warned that unless constitutional changes are made soon, provinces could lose control over critical natural resources, private property rights, and the sacred Alberta tradition of discovering Indigenous sovereignty only after hitting an unexpected legal obstacle.

At press time, the Alberta government had reportedly assembled a task force to determine whether treaties could simply be reclassified as “negative vibes from the 1800s.”
