Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s government is set to start its fall sitting with a focus on bills that the Opposition NDP says are aimed at catering to “fringe” elements of Smith’s United Conservative Party. Some of the proposed legislation would impose restrictions on transgender people and revamp the Alberta Bill of Rights. The sitting begins Monday, days before UCP members are scheduled to gather in Red Deer to vote on Smith’s leadership. Government house leader Joseph Schow says the agenda reflects demands that Smith has been hearing from Albertans. Schow declined to say whether the government plans to invoke the notwithstanding clause, which is a rarely used provision that allows governments to override certain sections of the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms for up to five years.
