Edmonton-Ellerslie

The Alberta Party is pleased to announce our final approved list of candidates for the Alberta Party Leadership race. Today at 5 pm, the deadline for submission... of candidate applications passed at which point we had received three packages, from Rick Fraser, Kara Levis, and Stephen Mandel. The Provincial Board of Directors met this evening to grant waivers of the one-year membership requirement for Mr. Fraser and Mr. Mandel, and to approve the candidacies of all three. The first official event of the leadership contest is tomorrow evening in Calgary, with an all candidates meet & greet. We are incredibly excited to have three high-quality candidates with diverse political backgrounds and experiences. Whether you lean left, right, or centre; Whether you’re a long time Alberta Party member or new to our team; Whether you’re a seasoned politico or newly engaged, we are confident there’s someone here for you, said Party President Rhiannon Hoyle. I’m looking forward to seeing the leadership candidates lay out a positive, uplifting vision for Alberta. These candidates will bring an exciting platform for the future of Alberta and the Alberta Party, and I can’t wait to see them in the debates, concluded Hoyle.
