Eșec major pentru separatiștii din Canada. Peste două treimi din locuitorii provinciei Alberta au votat împotriva separării regiunii

Residents of Alberta overwhelmingly voted to remain part of Canada, rejecting independence. Over two-thirds supported staying in the country, according to Elections Alberta. Prime Minister Mark Carney praised the outcome as a victory for unity. The referendum was initiated by Premier Danielle Smith in response to public demand, despite her opposition to separatism. Pro-independence advocates argued that federal environmental policies hindered Alberta's economic growth. However, one separatist leader vowed to continue the independence movement, viewing the vote as just a first step. An opposing group collected over 400,000 signatures against independence.
