Alberta Independence Referendum Question Moves Forward After Official Approval

                                           Aberta's provincial flag flies on a flag pole in Ottawa.

With this approval, organizers must now appoint a financial officer before launching the petition phase. Once underway, they will have four months to gather the required number of signatures to trigger a province‑wide referendum. If they succeed, Albertans could be asked to vote on independence in the coming years, setting the stage for a historic and highly contentious political moment.

The initiative comes amid ongoing debates about Alberta’s place in Confederation, economic autonomy, and federal‑provincial relations — issues that have fueled periodic calls for greater provincial independence.
