Carney heading to Alberta for Calgary Stampede
Carney will discuss energy cooperation and Alberta’s separatist vote as he meets First Nations leaders and attends Stampede events.
- On Saturday, Prime Minister Mark Carney visited the Calgary Stampede grounds and met with representatives of Treaty 6, Treaty 7 and Treaty 8 First Nations to discuss national cooperation on energy policy.
- Alberta Premier Danielle Smith scheduled an October referendum for residents to explore separation, though a successful court challenge by First Nations groups arguing inadequate consultation rendered the vote non-binding.
- Carney released a 17-minute video addressing a "threefold energy crisis," rejecting previous climate plans while proposing a 3,300-kilometre pipeline route connecting Alberta and Ontario.
- Separatist sentiment remains contentious, with polls indicating about 20% of Albertans back independence, while Liberal MP Corey Hogan described the division as "a poison" fracturing families.
- The referendum is 100 days away, though critics dismiss the ballot as a "referendum on a referendum" since it asks Albertans to explore separation rather than decide it directly.
