The Evan Bray Show – Friday, May 22

8:30 – Last night, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith made an address about the separatism debate in the province. She said the government will add another question to the fall referendum, asking Albertans whether the province should stay in Canada or start the legal process for a separatism vote. Ryan Jespersen, Real Talk show host, media personality, event host and keynote speaker, has been keeping a close eye on this. He joins us now to break down the latest.

Listener Question: If over 400,000 Albertans signed a pro-Canada petition, does that prove most Albertans are tired of separation talk?
