Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has introduced a bill that would make it easier for Albertans to launch referendums on various topics — including splitting from Canada. Smith has pointed to growing alienation in her province and frustration with Ottawa, saying those wanting to separate "are not fringe voices." National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak says any effort by Alberta to split
