John shares his thoughts on a National Post column criticizing recent statements from Supreme Court Chief Justice Richard Wagner. He agrees that undermining the value of legal precedent harms the rule of law. John also discusses a column in which he supports adding the right to refuse a vaccine to the Alberta Bill of Rights, as proposed by Premier Danielle Smith. He argues that while the Charter theoretically protects rights, judges too often side with governments.
