Alberta justices speak up about independence after premier muses about directing the courts

“Court of Appeal and King’s Bench [judges] are chosen by the federal government. In fact, I just wrote a letter to [Prime Minister] Mark Carney saying maybe we should look at a way, now that we’ve got some openings on King’s Bench, for us to have a joint process to choose those judges so we start choosing judges in Alberta that reflect the values of how we want them to operate here.”

Emphasis mine.

Like wtf... that is exactly what is NOT supposed to happen. They shouldn't be ruling on values, they should be ruling on the god damn law.
