Abstract
The provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan were created out of the Northwest Territories, a part of Canada owned and governed by the federal government. In order to understand the context and implications of Alberta’s potential secession from Canada, it is necessary to examine the history of the region and discuss the law that may be relevant to this question.
