A Spectacular Solar Eclipse Will Be Visible Over Toronto

Alberta Opposition NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi says Premier Danielle Smith has created an "impossible situation for herself" after foisting a divisive separatism debate upon the province.

In a vote Monday, Albertans emphatically rejected holding a binding referendum on separating from Canada.

U.S. President Donald Trump is backing down on a threat to ban Bombardier Inc. plane sales in the United States.

Trump said Monday night in Wichita, Kan., that he's changed his view of the Quebec-based business jet maker as a purely Canadian company and does not want to follow through on "hurting" it, given its presence in the city, where the company employs 1,500 workers. 

Alberta business groups are cheering the decisive win for the "stay" side in Monday's referendum, but say more work lies ahead in getting the province a fair shake within Confederation. 

Early returns show about 76 per cent of voters chose for Alberta to remain in Canada, while 24 per cent voted to hold a second, binding referendum on separation.
