An Alberta judge has reserved his decision on whether to review the constitutionality of a proposed referendum question on the province’s separation from Canada, with a ruling expected on Aug. 14.

Court of Kings Bench Justice Colin Feasby said on Aug. 7 he would reserve his decision until next week, after hearing arguments on whether a review of a proposed Alberta separation referendum question should proceed. This followed an application from Mitch Sylvestre, an executive with the Alberta Prosperity Project (APP)—the group that proposed the question—seeking to dismiss the review.
