Yet another conservative government demonstrating why giving the current brand of conservatives more power is a bad idea.

A Regina judge has ruled that the Saskatchewan government's naming and pronoun policy should be paused for the time being, but Premier Scott Moe says he'll use the notwithstanding clause to override it.
Moe, responding to today's injunction issued by a Regina Court of King's Bench Justice Michael Megaw, said he intends to recall the legislature Oct. 10 to "pass legislation to protect parents' rights."
"The default position should never be to keep a child's information from their parents."
Last month, the province announced that all students under 16 needed parental consent to change their names or pronouns.
Moe previously said he stands by the policy and that the province will do everything in its power to protect parental rights.
