Elections Alberta says it’s set to begin verifying the signatures on a petition looking to force a vote on the province separating from Canada.
The petition was submitted in early May, but just two weeks later a judge quashed it after ruling the petition was out of line with provincial law and that First Nations needed to be consulted.
But last week the group behind the petition earned a partial win in court when another judge ruled the signature verification process should take place while the original ruling is appealed.
