dc.description.abstractThe article discusses the court case wherein the "Edmonton Journal" challenged the constitutionalism of the Accurate News and Information Act of Alberta's Social Credit Board. The legislation was passed to limit the opposition and criticism brought by a united Alberta media against the economic and social policies of the Social Credit government of William Aberhart. Furthermore, the Supreme Court of Canada has found the bill to be outside of the legislative authority of Alberta.en_US

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
