Prime Minister Mark Carney underscored the importance of national unity after Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said she would uphold the democratic process if a separation question in the province gains enough support to trigger a referendum.
“Canada is stronger when we work together,” Carney told reporters in French on May 6, following his first meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House. “I am Albertan. I proudly believe in Canada. So one can ask the question, but for me the answer is clear.”
