  Alberta overwhelmingly rejects starting the path to an independence referendum from Canada

  

  Voters in the Canadian province of Alberta on Monday overwhelmingly rejected having their government begin the process of calling a binding referendum on independence from Canada, according to preliminary results. With more than half the votes counted, around 76% chose for Alberta to remain a Canadian province, against about 24% who backed starting down the path to separation. Official results will be known on Thursday.
