Three quarters of Alberta voters say they want their province to remain part of Canada, but they also want a bigger say in how the country is run. Also: Ottawa is relieved by the results of the separation vote, and Prime Minister Mark Carney says he will work with Danielle Smith on another referendum question — immigration. And: Canada is unlikely to strike a trade deal with the U.S., as Washington is focussed on the midterm elections. Plus: Communities across Canada mourn victims of the fire at CFB Wainwright, Quebec’s Lieutenant Governor will not attend the swearing in of the new provincial government, and Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy tries to mend frayed relations with the U.S.
