Conservative premiers call on Ottawa to back down in Supreme Court case on notwithstanding clause

Five provinces – including Quebec, Ontario and Alberta – are calling on Prime Minister Mark Carney to back down in a landmark Supreme Court of Canada case that revolves around the Charter’s notwithstanding clause and governments’ power to override the rights of Canadians.

In a legal filing in mid-September, Ottawa asked the top court to impose restrictions on governments’ use of the notwithstanding clause.
