FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE STURGEON LAKE CREE NATION FILES CLAIM OVER SEPARATIST PETITION Treaty No. 8 Territory- January 2, 2026 No separation of Alberta from Canada can occur without First Nation consent. This is Treaty land. This is the law. Despite this, today, the Chief Electoral Officer followed the blatantly unconstitutional law passed by the UCP and approved a separatist petition in violation of Treaty No. 8. This petition will invite foreign interference and economic, societal and legal harm on all Canadians who live in Alberta, but especially all First Nations. This was approved all while the Courts were closed. They reopen Monday. Tonight, we have filed a Statement of Claim in the Alberta Court of King's Bench against Alberta, Canada and the Chief Electoral Officer for failing to diligently implement the Treaty and for breaching the Treaty. On Monday, we willfile an urgent injunction to pause the petition to avoid the foreseeable harms that will result from this petition We invite all First Nations and Canadians to support us. Kinanâskomitin, Chief Sheldon Sunshine
