Alberta residents have voted overwhelmingly to remain part of Canada, a result that Prime Minister Mark Carney has described as "a clear choice" in favour of national unity.

The outcome confirms the province's continued commitment to the Canadian federation, putting to rest any recent debates regarding its status within the country.

Prime Minister Carney welcomed the decision, framing the vote as a definitive endorsement of the existing constitutional arrangement between Alberta and the rest of Canada.

While the specific details of the referendum or vote mechanism were not provided in the initial report, the strong consensus in the result has been highlighted by federal leadership as a unifying moment for the nation.
