Carney Warns Alberta Separatism Vote

Prime Minister Mark Carney has slammed Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s proposed sovereignty referendum as a “dangerous bluff,” warning Albertans to think carefully — likening it to Brexit’s long-term fallout. Smith’s October 19 vote would legally initiate separation talks, though she says she’ll personally vote to stay in Canada. Carney, however, sees the move as politically risky and counterproductive, especially as he seeks to mend federal-provincial ties. He’ll campaign for Alberta to remain part of Canada and insists Parliament must vet the referendum to ensure compliance with the Clarity Act.
