So do you really believe the world community would simply disregard a legal vote for independence by Alberta, Quebec, or any other province in Confederation?
Keep in mind that Canada is legally obligated to negotiate per the Clarity Act. Independence is not going to be one province standing up and stating that they are done with Canada. It is something that will be negotiated following an expression of such by a clear majority of that province's inhabitants.
This simply is not something the world would disregard.
