Alberta uses notwithstanding clause to end teacher strike, forcing 51,000 teachers back to work.

Alberta invoked the clause to pass legislation forcing 51,000 teachers back to work, overriding Charter rights and banning strikes for three years.
The move, which also restricts religious expression in schools and limits legal challenges, has drawn criticism over democratic process and rights erosion.
Moe’s support follows his province’s prior use of the clause to restrict school name and pronoun changes.
The notwithstanding clause, valid for five years, is now seen as increasingly common, raising concerns about normalizing constitutional overrides.
