Beyond Local: Treaty Rights First! Alberta Needs First Nations’ Free, Prior, And Informed Consent To Separate – LakelandToday.ca
Alberta has no authority over these Treaties, and First Nations are not bound by any Alberta referendum.
(ANNews) – For several years now, the Alberta government has voiced dissatisfaction with a number of federal policies on things like energy, taxation and equalization payments and believes that its economic contributions are not matched by federal support.
The Alberta government is asking for more control from the federal government. These ongoing concerns have led some Albertans to begin a petition calling on Alberta to separate from Canada. Treaty First Nations’ (First Nations) have stated that decisions about separation cannot be made without consultation and agreement with them on this matter.
