On Thursday an Alberta committee recommended a referendum question that separatists and federalists alike are taking issue with. Premier Danielle Smith, caught in the middle of the discourse, is set to address the province Thursday evening. Power & Politics hears from Thomas Lukaszuk, the former deputy premier of Alberta and face of the Forever Canadian petition, and from the CBC's Kathleen Petty and Rob Breakenridge of the Calgary Herald.
