Global National : 15 oct. 2026 | Le premier ministre Carney lance une tournée d'unité de deux jours avant le référendum en Alberta

Le premier ministre Mark Carney fait campagne en Alberta avant le référendum de lundi sur la sécession, appelant les électeurs à rester dans la Confédération et à voter « non » aux neuf autres questions posées par la première ministre Danielle Smith. Cinq de ces questions portent sur la politique d'immigration, dont la réduction possible des services sociaux pour les résidents temporaires. D'anciens premiers ministres provinciaux critiquent aussi ces mesures. Le bulletin évoque également le projet d'éolien en mer de la Nouvelle-Écosse.

• Mark Carney fait campagne en Alberta avant le scrutin de lundi sur la sécession et demande aux électeurs de rester dans la Confédération.
• Cinq des neuf questions complémentaires concernent l'immigration, notamment les services sociaux pour les résidents temporaires.
• La Nouvelle-Écosse vise le premier projet d'éolien en mer du Canada, avec un soutien fédéral; une « trêve énergétique » entre l'Ukraine et la Russie n'a pas tenu.

The political focus in Canada is now on Alberta, as voters choose whether to stay in the country or move ahead with a binding referendum on independence. Prime Minister Mark Carney is clear on where he stands, and is delivering his message on a campaign-style swing through the province ahead of Monday’s vote, urging voters to not only stay in Confederation, but also to vote “no” to the other nine questions put on the ballot by Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. David Akin reports. While the ballot question on separation is getting the bulk of the attention, five other questions pertain to immigration policy – including whether social services should be cut for temporary residents. And the premier is urging Albertans to support her government's measures. But as Heather Yourex-West explains, Smith is facing pushback from some high-profile politicians: former provincial premiers. And the federal government has put some extra wind in the sails of Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston's ambition to make the province the home of Canada’s first offshore wind development. If the project becomes reality, it promises to generate enough power for the province – with enough left over for the rest of the region and beyond. Heidi Petrasek explains how the plan fits into a federal strategy that's embraced both renewable energy and fossil fuels at the same time. Plus, U.S. President Donald Trump's so-called “energy truce” between Ukraine and Russia appears to have been short-lived – if it ever took effect at all. On Thursday, Ukraine's capital endured more Russian bombardments – the latest in a series of attacks this week that have prompted Kyiv to retaliate. As Redmond Shannon reports, the failed agreement marks the latest source of frustration for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy with his biggest ally, as relations between Ukraine and Washington sour again.
