Alberta rejects a move toward independence from Canada in a victory for Carney

Canada's province of Alberta rejected a plan to hold a binding independence referendum, results showed Tuesday, a win for unity as the country faces worsening ties with the United States. With more than 1.5 million votes counted, 76% supported remaining in Canada, while close to 24% backed beginning a process toward separation, according to unofficial results from Elections Alberta. Voters in Canada's oil-rich province of Alberta have rejected a proposal to begin a process toward independence.

More than 1 million votes were counted early Tuesday.
