Did you know the referendums are illegal? The Constitution prohibits both annexation and secession, it was designed that way in 1865 by the Founding Fathers. The legislative powers were divided between the Federal Parliament and the Provincial Legislatures. The provinces received an "enumerated" list of powers under s. 92. "Enumerated" means they can't do anything that isn't on the list. There is DELIBERATELY no power to secede. There thus can be NO REFERENDUM on the subject of secession.

@crazyforcanada if someone wants to leave Canada, why would they care about Canadian laws?
