Smith also expanded on her promise to introduce narrow changes to the Human Rights Act this fall to forbid discrimination based on COVID-19 vaccination status
EDMONTON — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is seeking legal advice on whether she can pardon those fined for non-criminal violations of health restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Since it was a very specific reaction to a very specific vaccine mandate, we’re going to be very precise when we write the legislation,” she said.“ we have to get away from this attitude that you demonize those who make a different choice.” During her speech Saturday at her party's AGM, held at the River Cree Resort and Casino on Edmonton’s western outskirts, she reiterated her sharp criticism of Alberta Health Services, the arm’s-length agency of the government tasked with administering and delivering front-line care under policy direction from the Health Ministry.
Smith, speaking to reporters, also declined to elaborate on comments she made to the Western Standard online outlet in a livestream interview Friday.
