Two opposition leaders in Quebec are urging the incoming Parti Québécois government to take note of Monday night’s referendum results in Alberta.
About three-quarters of Albertans voted for the province to remain in Canada, rejecting a proposal for a future referendum on separation.
However, they also voted for their province to negotiate for changes to the Constitution to secure more powers from the federal government.
Conservative Leader Éric Duhaime says Quebecers must align themselves with Alberta to to secure a balance of power in the federation.
He is also urging PQ leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon to drop his promise to hold a referendum on independence.
Liberal Leader Charles Milliard made the same request, but did not comment on Alberta’s desires for more powers.
