Danielle Smith Says There Won't Be Another Separation Referendum While She's Premier
Smith said 75% of voters backed staying in Canada and pledged to press Ottawa for more provincial control over immigration and other powers.
- On Tuesday, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith ruled out another provincial separation referendum while she remains in power, pledging to respect Albertans' vote to keep the province in Canada.
- More than 75 per cent of Albertans voted to remain in Canada during Monday's provincial referendum, according to unofficial results released Tuesday evening.
- Voters cast 14,127,664 ballots across 10 non-binding questions, as Elections Alberta reported that counting remains incomplete for several constitutional issues.
- Smith announced her government will pursue reforms approved by voters, including tighter immigration controls, proof-of-citizenship requirements for provincial elections, and service fees for temporary residents.
- Criticizing the nearly $200 million cost, Alberta NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi argued Smith's focus on picking fights with Ottawa neglects public health and education.
