flag Alberta panel recommends referendums on leaving CPP, provincial police, immigration control, and greater autonomy.

flag An Alberta panel chaired by Premier Danielle Smith has recommended holding referendums on leaving the Canada Pension Plan, creating a provincial police force, gaining greater control over immigration, and pursuing constitutional changes to expand provincial autonomy. flag The panel, formed after consultations with over 5,000 Albertans, said any CPP exit would require a new pension plan matching or exceeding federal benefits and premiums, along with thorough public education. flag It also urged reform of equalization payments and a review of Alberta’s potential to run its own tax system. flag Despite survey data showing public skepticism, the panel recommended moving forward with referendums. flag The government will review the findings before deciding next steps.
