Alberta Just Launched An Official Process To Become The 51st State
A counter process has been launched was well...
A petition, in the form of a binding referendum, which needs 294,000 signatures in 120 days, has been launched, and it has only one very direct question…
Do you agree that the province of Alberta shall become a sovereign country and cease to be a province in Canada?
The petition is under Constitutional review - most Canadian Constitution experts say it is from our research in the last 2 weeks.
Meanwhile, former Deputy Premier Thomas Lucasuk launched a petition, also a binding referendum, with one very direct question…
Do you agree that Alberta should remain in Canada?
A binding referendum, which needs 294,000 signatures in 120 days as well.
Only ONE referendum on this topic can go forward - placing a sense of urgency for both petitions.
A poll shows that 66% of UCP voters support independence; however, the petitions only need 10% of the population to move the referendum forward.
Note: The United Conservative Party of Alberta (UCP) is a conservative political party in the province of Alberta, Canada.
That means where they collect the 294,000 signatures is just as critical as the 120-day deadline.
When it comes to the general support among Albertans, it sits between 40 and 45%.
