Judge says investigation to continue, Albertans ‘want to know that their politics are clean’
Jason Kenney speaks to the media at his first convention as leader of the United Conservative Party in Red Deer on Sunday, May 6, 2018. A Calgary judge denied an injunction Wednesday that would have postponed an investigation into the United Conservative Party’s leadership race until after Alberta’s April 16 provincial election.
Alberta’s elections commissioner and the RCMP are investigating how leadership candidate Jeff Callaway’s campaign in 2017 was funded. The commissioner has already issued some fines for illegal donations to Callaway’s campaign. Callaway dropped out of the race and threw his support behind Jason Kenney, who went on to lead the new party.
