It has to be a ‘clear majority’ but the number isn’t specified. People often say 60%. Maybe 50%+1 of registered voters (not actual voters) would be sufficient. If the referendum passes it triggers negotiation with the rest of Canada, not another referendum. I guess that’s where ‘clear majority’ will be debated.
