Alberta separatists submit 300K signatures as petition deadline hits
From the Right
AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Right
Leaders of Alberta's separatist movement released a preliminary tally of 301,620 signatures as they turned in their petition for an independence referendum on Monday.
If most of these signatures can be verified by Elections Alberta, the petition should easily clear the formal threshold of 177,732 signatures required to force a referendum.
