What happened
Referendum results showed that most of Calgary, Edmonton, and the Bow Valley voted 'no' to questions one through nine. Lori Williams, a political science professor at Mount Royal University, stated that areas with higher concentrations of newcomers might view proposed policy changes as less threatening because residents are more accustomed to interacting with immigrants.
