> Alberta residents began voting in a non-binding referendum on whether the province should pursue separation from Canada. Polls cited in the report show most decided voters favor remaining in the country, while separatist organizer Cory Morgan says a substantial faction wants a binding vote. Prime Minister Mark Carney called the timing the worst possible.
