! Alberta is going to have a referendum in 2026
1) Should we have our own pension plan?
2) Should we control our own immigration?
3) Should we regain the powers Ottawa took away from us?
4) Do you agree that the province of Alberta should cease to be a part of Canada to become an independent state?
5) Should we maintain the status quo?
