Prime Minister fe, Premier Ministre
On October 19, Albertans made a clear choice. They chose unity, to build together, and
to take care of each other.
Above all, Albertans chose Canada.
While votes on all questions continue to be tallied, tonights results on the defining
question of separation mean that Albertans and all Canadians will move forward
together with renewed purpose and high ambition.
We are building that future, bigger and faster than ever before. Canada is securing new
trade partners around the world, fast-tracking major, nation-building projects in every
part of the country, and unleashing our full potential as a global energy superpower
with Alberta at its core.
Canada is so much greater than the sum of its parts. Now it is our opportunity to take all
that we have been given as Canadians — and we have been given the greatest country in
the world — and make our country better for all of us.
The Rt. Hon. Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada October 20, 2026
