BREAKING:#Alberta announces it will NOT participate in the federal firearm buyback program. It will not enforce it — nor force any Albertans to participate in it. Justice Minister Tyler Shandro calls Ottawa's plan politically motivated and an 'overreach.' #yeg #yyc #abpoli #ableg
Government's plan is to ask RCMP to NOT enforce it.
Shandro says policing dollars should be spent on policing, not having officers act as "confiscation agents."
He says he hopes RCMP will listen to gov and not do it, but gov can't actually do anything more than that it seems.

Shandro's response when I pointed out that asking RCMP to not follow federal laws sounds an awful lot like Danielle Smith's proposed 'Alberta Sovereignty Act':
