Alberta voters have decisively rejected a proposal to start a process toward independence from Canada, according to a projection by national broadcaster CBC.
More than 1 million votes had been tallied early Tuesday, representing roughly one-third of ballots. About 76% favoured staying in Canada, while 23% supported beginning a process that could lead to separation.
The projected outcome marks a win for Prime Minister Mark Carney and those campaigning to keep Canada united.
