Alberta’s election agency announced Monday it has approved a proposed referendum question on the province separating from Canada.

The question seeks a yes or no answer to: “Do you agree that the province of Alberta should cease to be a part of Canada to become an independent state?”

Elections Alberta says the proponent — the Alberta Prosperity Project and its chief executive officer, Mitch Sylvestre — have until early January to appoint a financial officer for its petition campaign, after which signature collection can begin.

    What the fuck? The sounds like a horrible idea. Who there would vote yes for this and not expect risking to become as US territory for the oil?

        Are you sure they’re not secretly Canadian MAGA and want to be annexed by Trump?

            Worse, if ONLY they vote: they win.

            ( same as how the Democrats “won” the election of Harris by sitting-out the election in droves )
