Early results show roughly 76 percent of voters supported staying in Canada, while about 24 percent favored holding a second, binding referendum on leaving the country. The vote follows a contentious campaign led by separatists in the oil-rich province. Rallies in Calgary and shifting public support reflected strong opposition to the independence push, ultimately keeping the country together despite tensions over the province's place in the federation.
