Alberta referendum reveals urban-rural split in separatism vote

Description

Albertans overwhelmingly voted to remain in Canada in the province's historic referendum on Monday. Voters were asked if they wanted to remain in Canada, or whether the province should move towards having a binding referendum on separation. As of the following afternoon, the tally on that question was 76 per cent for option 1 — to remain — and 24 per cent for option 2, to explore leaving.  As Global's Ottawa bureau chief David Akin reports from Edmonton, there were some significant regional differences in that result which could pose political problems for Alberta Premier Danielle Smith.
