Elections Alberta has secured an interim injunction against a separatist organization which the watchdog alleges has unauthorized access to the province’s most recent list of electors, containing the personal information belonging to 2.9 million residents.

Elections Alberta on Thursday went to court to force the separatist organization, known as the Centurion Project, to stop providing its members with information the agency alleges originates from the provincial list of electors. The Centurion Project’s app, where authorized users could search for residents by name or address, went dark after Court of King’s Bench Justice John Little issued the injunction Thursday morning.

Elections Alberta believes Centurion’s data originated from the Republican Party of Alberta, a separatist vehicle which launched in 2025.

“The list that populates the Centurion Project’s database, at one point, was in the hands of the Republican Party of Alberta,” Joseph Redman, a lawyer for Elections Alberta, told an Edmonton court.
