For Danielle Smith, the ultimate jackpot would be the new federal Conservative leader\u0027s approval of her Sovereignty Act proposal
On the Sovereignty Act, Anderson adds, “Poilievre is running to be prime minister of Canada so he has to be careful of being seen to focus on one province over the others. So I would doubt he would say anything about that.
“When the Smith camp says that with Poilievre as prime minister we will never need to use the Sovereignty Act, that reflects one of our fears that it would never fix anything that has gone before. It only looks forward. It is purely defensive, purely reactive.An endorsement from Poilievre would be a boost to Danielle Smith’s campaign.Recently, Smith’s campaign has trumpeted support for the Sovereignty Act from former Newfoundland and Labrador premier Brian Peckford.
Why would Poilievre get involved in this? Apart from the national risks, it’s hard to imagine a leader who hopes to be prime minister arguing for nullification of federal powers.
