Your daily horoscope: January 13, 2026

  IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY There may be nothing new under the sun but what takes place over the next 12 months will take you by surprise because it never occurred to you that such things were possible. Forget about what went before – it’s what comes next that matters. ARIES (March 21 - April 20): The best way to deal with information that does not make sense is to ignore it.

Alberta Independence Rally Sparks Debate at Legislature

 

Hundreds of Albertans gathered at the Alberta Legislature in Edmonton on Saturday to rally in support of separating from Canada. The demonstration, fueled by frustration over federal policies and the recent Liberal election victory, saw participants waving Alberta flags and even some displaying U.S. flags. 

Premier Danielle Smith’s government recently proposed legislation that would lower the threshold for holding a referendum, making it easier for citizens to push for a vote on secession. While Smith has not explicitly endorsed separation, the move has emboldened those advocating for Alberta’s independence.

As tensions rise, the debate over Alberta’s future within Canada continues to unfold, with both supporters and critics making their voices heard.
