In a speech to delegates to start the AGM, Smith made it clear she stands with parental rights, saying to delegates, "I want every parent listening today to hear me loud and clear: parents are the primary caregivers and educators of their children."

(Calgary, Alberta) — [LifeSiteNews.com] Over 3,800 grassroots members of Alberta's ruling United Conservative Party (UCP) voted to pass a slew of pro-family, medical freedom, and anti-woke policies at its annual general meeting over the weekend, including one calling for a bill to support "comprehensive parental rights" in education.

In total, UCP members debated some 51 resolutions, with 30 of them pertaining to official party policy, on November 3 and 4 at the AGM, which took place in Calgary. The resolutions are non-binding.

Most important, UCP members voted to "protect an individual's right to informed consent decisions regarding their own body."

"No government, business, corporation, entity, non-profit, or any other organization, institution or society has the right to mandate, force, or coerce an individual into a medical intervention or procedure, regardless of the societal benefit or otherwise," resolution four reads.

This resolution pertains to how COVID jabs were pushed on the population without proper consent taking place in many instances, such as when workplace jab mandates were enacted.

The many pro-medical freedom resolutions came about after former leader of the party and Alberta Premier Jason Kenney backtracked and enacted COVID vaccine passports in the province for a time, as well as allow health officials to enact jabs mandates for staff. This resulted in him eventually being turfed as party leader, with Danielle Smith taking his place.

Other votes in favor of medical freedom included UCP party members voting to "Protect an individual's right to free expression" and as well as "Protect a medical practitioner's right to research, speak, and write; and protect Medical Doctors and all healthcare professionals from having their licenses to practice threatened for publicly expressing professional medical opinions in any public setting."

Resolution 16, which calls for the party to "enshrine the doctor-patient relationship" by "protecting Alberta physicians from undue third-party interference," was also passed by members.

Smith, who now leads the UCP and is Alberta's Premier, told reporters that her government is not bound to follow the UCP's decision should the motion be passed but noted she does support the party's grassroots process... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
