About 20% of Alberta residents are pushing for a formal vote on the province's potential independence from Canada.
Alberta is moving toward a referendum on separation from Canada, driven by residents seeking independence. Approximately 20% of the province's population supports formal separation, enough momentum to advance the proposal to a public vote.
The initiative reflects growing regional sentiment within the western Canadian province. The referendum would give Alberta voters a chance to decide directly on the question of remaining part of Canada or pursuing independence.
