Premier Doug Ford is blasting Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s decision to hold a referendum on whether her province should move toward secession from Canada.
“I’d never do it. Premier Smith knows how I feel. She wants to, I guess, protect her 30 per cent base,” Ford said Friday in Sault Ste. Marie.
That was an apparent reference to separatist elements with Smith’s United Conservative Party that want Alberta to secede.
