Jason Kenney warns of ‘deeply divisive’ impact of a sovereignty referendum in Alberta

Former Alberta premier Jason Kenney is painting a bleak picture of what will happen if Albertans are forced to vote on a referendum on separation, calling it a deeply divisive, non-violent version of a civil war. Kenney, Alberta's premier from 2019 to 2022, says a small minority of angry people should not be able to push a separatist agenda that impacts everyone in the province. He says it's deeply divisive and would divide families, friends and communities if it goes forward. Premier Danielle Smith's United Conservative government is officially lowering the required threshold for

Alberta Next panel, seeking input on federal grievances, hosts town hall in Airdrie

School bus fire: Quebec pulls all 1,200 Lion electric buses off roads for inspection

Schools across Quebec have been forced to cancel bus service after the government pulled all of the roughly 1,200 Lion electric buses in the province off the roads.

Several children and a driver were inside the bus when it caught fire but no one was injured. In response to the government's decision, some school service centres chose to cancel bus routes, and others cancelled the school day entirely. The Quebec government said it pulled the buses so that they
