carbon tax is just an example, maybe not a good example of using sovereignty act but it's better than status quo. You see, status quo is ottawa imposes new tax, provinces have to suck it up or lawyer up to take government to court to fight the tax bill while ottawa collecting the new tax to fund the court fight, Now the table turned, Alberta can nullify current and stop new carbon tax, government have to take alberta to court while alberta not paying the new tax while the matter is in the court.  Seeing this new game tactic, other provinces would follow alberta strategy. This matter will now be a national news where as before it's was a western provincial news with low exposure. 

Where sovereignty act will have better success is in provincial jursidiction matter like, provincial police, gun law, healthcare, agriculture, GHG target, new energy projects.  Western provinces were too timid before while holding better cards, the commodity cards.   Russian sanction put canada on the map now. Even Steven Guilbeault wouldn't dare to phaseout oil/gas at the COP27 meeting even though Trudeau had pledged to phase out oilsands.

Residuary powers are retained by the Federal Government, unlike the U.S., where residuary powers are ascribed to the states. Ultimately the courts would strike down provincial laws that cross the line.
