What’s next for Alberta’s separatist movement?

Description

A landmark Alberta court ruling has dismissed a proposed separation referendum, finding that it violates historic treaties and cannot proceed without consulting First Nations. Global's Jazan Grewal is joined by Nelson Wiseman, a Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Toronto, to discuss what the latest ruling could mean for the future of the movement. “I don’t really think it matters at all. If the government wants this referendum to take place, it doesn’t have to go to court, it doesn’t have to appeal this, it can just add it to the list of other questions it plans to ask Albertans that deal with such things as immigration,” Wiseman said. “Any government can put whatever question it wants to the public.” Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has vowed to appeal the court’s decision, calling the ruling “undemocratic.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca/news/11849485/carney-alberta-referendum-court-ruling-reaction/ Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Follow Global News on X HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on TikTok HERE: https://www.tiktok.com/@globalnews.ca?lang=en #GlobalNews
