Voters in Canada's oil-rich province of Alberta are heading to the polls on Monday to decide whether to begin a process that could lead to provincial independence. The vote forces the electorate to consider pursuing a binding referendum on leaving the country.

The political showdown coincides with heightened national tensions, as Prime Minister Mark Carney works to keep Canada united. Carney has warned that a separatist victory would introduce dangerous uncertainty, particularly as the nation navigates an ongoing trade war with the United States and threats from U.S. President Donald Trump regarding Canada's statehood.
