🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Hindi isinantabi ni Prime Minister Mark Carney ang posibilidad ng Alberta immigration deal na kahawig ng kasunduan ng Quebec noong 1991. Sinagot ni Carney ang mga reporter ng “We’ll see” sa French sa isang palitan sa Parliament Hill at nagsalita sa Calgary noong Miyerkules; binanggit niya na pinapahintulutan ng kasunduan ng Quebec noong 1991 ang lalawigan na magtakda ng sariling economic immigration targets at sinabi niyang makikipag-usap ang Ottawa sa ibang mga lalawigan tungkol sa mga antas. Mahigit isang milyon ng mga Albertan ang bumoto sa referendum question tungkol sa kontrol ng lalawigan, na may paunang resulta na nagpapakita na humigit-kumulang 53% ang boto ng oo sa pagbabagong kapangyarihan sa imigrasyon.
