Join The Lavigne Show as we dive into Alberta’s evolving Bill of Rights with special guests Leighton Grey and Bruce Pardy. In this episode, they explore the gaps between Alberta's proposed Bill 24 and the foundational rights Canadians expect. From the influences of judicial power to the concept of a “demonstrably justified” limitation on rights, they clarify a complex issue impacting freedoms across Canada.

Introduction to the Alberta Bill of Rights
Jason opens by providing an overview of recent discussions around Alberta’s Bill 24, the UCP’s approach, and why it matters to Canadians. Leighton Grey and Bruce Pardy, both influential voices on civil liberties and Canadian law, then join Jason to discuss the legislation's strengths and shortcomings.

Alberta’s Black Hat Movement
Leighton Grey shares insights on his role within the “Black Hat” group, a grassroots movement pushing for stronger rights protections in Alberta. He recounts how this group developed an independent Bill of Rights draft, advocating for human rights without compromise, but laments how political interference led to its dilution in Bill 24.

Why All Canadians Should Watch Alberta
From Ontario, Bruce Pardy explains why developments in Alberta could set a precedent for rights across Canada. He emphasizes that this bill allows provinces to push back against federal overreach and judicial limitations on rights, particularly through Section One of the Charter, which provides for rights to be “demonstrably justified” and limited by the government.

Dissecting Bill 24’s Section One & “Justifiable” Rights Limits
The conversation critically examines Section One of the Canadian Charter and its implications in Bill 24. Leighton and Bruce analyze how this “demonstrably justified” clause has often permitted government actions that erode individual freedoms, arguing for a Bill of Rights that truly protects Canadians against state overreach.

A Vision for a Stronger Bill of Rights
Leighton and Bruce conclude with their perspectives on how a robust Bill of Rights could transform Canadian society. They call for a rights framework grounded in natural law, freedom from government intrusion, and the supremacy of the legislature, all aimed at protecting individual liberties and enabling a freer, more just society.

Join us for this enlightening discussion on rights, freedoms, and the future of Canadian liberty.
