'This is our jurisdiction': Alberta moves to block federal charges under firearms ban

[canuckledragger]

1. So the Albertan provincial government thinks they are their own little kingdom

They're acting like Quebec did a while back... wanting everything a big country provides but on their own terms alone, free to ignore any federal law, etc that makes them cry.

And they don't quite understand that if they actually got their wish and separated, they'd still be in between 2 other Canadian provinces that they'd have to negotiate with, and on much less favorable grounds then if they'd stayed.
