If you think the Feds will override, will they really? With Mr. Harper in Ottawa? I'm hopefully they would, but have my doubts.
You mean the Harper majority government who's leader has already stated that he's not re-opening the gay marriage laws or abortion laws?

Now you're trying to create a global conservative conspiracy where Smith is going to re-open the gay rights abortion rights debate based on a Alberta use of the not-withstanding clause? And Harper will use it as some kind of constitutional litmus test?

And what, watch the Conservatives lose the next election in a freaking landslide when they lose all of their eastern votes?

The same federal conservative government that made changes to the gay marriage rules so that it was an improvement on the original rules that were laid out?
