Did you know that the Canadian province of Alberta voted on Monday on the question of whether Alberta should become independent of Canada?
Here are the results:
Approximately 69% of voters chose to remain a province of Canada, while about 25% supported starting the process for a binding referendum on independence. The results are non-binding, meaning they do not automatically change any laws.
Quebec has had the same vote twice, and it failed both times...most recently in 1995, when 50.58% of Quebecois opted to remain a province of Canada. Close!

DeleteThe underlying point of the vote is to get more attention from Ottawa (their DC).
