OTTAWA — Conservative Chief Pierre Poilievre says he will be in Alberta next week to give a speech on Canadian unity before the province’s vote on breaking away.
Poilievre informed a news gathering in Burlington, Ont., today he will be doing “extra campaigning on the ground.”
When questioned about tech businessman Elon Musk saying fresh days that Alberta, Saskatchewan and Quebec should break away, Poilievre stated “Canadians manage their own future.”
The premiers of Alberta and Saskatchewan brushed off Musk’s words, while Quebec’s fresh premier has stated he will not start a separation vote while U.S. President Donald Trump remains in office.
Poilievre failed to state where and when he will give his speech on country unity.
Albertans will vote on the prospect of a tomorrow separation referendum, along with nine alternate questions involving state and immigration topics, on Oct. 19.
