Prime Minister Mark Carney met with Canada’s premiers today in Ottawa with a focus to “come together and build.”

After the U.S. State Department confirmed that Alberta separatists met with the Trump administration, Carney said he expected the United States to always “respect Canadian sovereignty.”

The first ministers’ meeting comes as potential independence referendums in both Quebec and Alberta are being discussed in those provinces.

Quebec’s outgoing premier says most Quebecers don’t want to separate, but it’s up to them to decide.

    Hey Carney! We’ll trade you the NFC North for Alberta! (Totally not self-serving because I live in one of those states…)

      Alberta is Canadian. We’re staying here.

      If you wish to join Canada, there’s an immigration process.
