Alberta separatism is making headlines again, this time driven largely by figures associated with far-right politics and the Freedom Convoy who are disgruntled about the federal election results.

Groups within the province are now organizing a petition for a referendum and it looks increasingly like they may succeed at putting a question about Alberta independence on the ballot in some form or another next year.
