EDMONTON — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says she has voted at an advance poll for the province to stay in Canada.
Smith says in a video on social media about Monday’s referendum that it’s not the time to give up hope on the country.
She says she knows many Albertans are frustrated with Ottawa but that the province is starting to see progress with major projects, including a proposed new oil pipeline.
The premier says if Albertans want to send a message to the federal government then they should vote in support of nine proposals also on the ballot that deal with immigration and constitutional reform.
