Carney: U.S. trying to ‘break’ Canada ahead of Alberta vote

–

Neutral summary

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned on Thursday of foreign attempts to split the country and urged the oil-rich province of Alberta not to begin a secession process during Monday’s referendum. He said the United States is trying to “break” Canada so it can “take control” of it. Carney’s remarks came shortly after Donald Trump threatened that Canada will “end up being the 51st state.” Carney called the referendum “the worst possible time” for such a vote. The preliminary independence referendum in Alberta is scheduled for October 19. According to polls, more than two-thirds of the province’s residents oppose secession from Canada. Sources differ in their wording: some directly name the United States as the force behind attempts to split the country, while others refer to “external forces” or “foreign forces.”
