EXCERPT:
Voters in oil-rich Alberta province in Canada held its vote Monday on whether or not to separate from the Canada and the far left leadership that is destroying our great northern neighbor.
The polls were held open late with the last scheduled late-closing location at 10 PM Alberta Time – or Mountain time in the US.
The results are being held until all voting locations are closed.
According to the Alberta Elections page:
This is a non-binding, consultative referendum. A “No” (Remain) result changes nothing legally. A “Yes” (Leave) majority would not start separation: under the federal Clarity Act and the Supreme Court’s 1998 Secession Reference, only a clear majority on a clear question obliges Ottawa and the provinces to negotiate — and any actual secession would require a constitutional amendment.
Either way, the political consequences arrive immediately; the legal ones, if any, would take years.
