  • Jason Kenney Elected Leader of UCP October 30, 2017
    Jason Kenney Elected Leader of UCP October 30, 2017 JASON KENNEY ELECTED LEADER OF THE UNITED CONSERVATIVE PARTY OF ALBERTA Introduction In a victory surprising for its size and decisiveness, Jason Kenney won the leadership of the United Conservative Party of Alberta (UCP) on Saturday, October 28. Kenney took 61.1 per cent of the almost 60,000 votes cast, besting former Wildrose Party leader Brian Jean with 31.5 per cent, and 7.3 per cent for Doug Schweitzer, who managed the late Jim Prentice’s Progressive Conservative leadership campaign in 2014. Background The win capped a fifteen-month process that began when Kenney launched the idea of uniting Alberta Conservatives into one party, and is a significant tribute to his organizational skills and superior ground game. Kenney’s success had several key steps: • On July 16, 2016, he announced he would seek the leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party on a platform of merging with Wildrose. • On March 18, 2017, he was elected leader of the Progressive Conservative Party with more than 75 per cent of the delegate votes. • Two months later, Kenney and Brian Jean announced a merger referendum among the membership of the PCs and Wildrose to be held on July 22. • The referendum was strongly passed by both parties by identical approvals of 96 per cent, which created the United Conservative Party and led the way to last Saturday’s leadership victory. Deep Political & Government Experience Born in Toronto and raised in Saskatchewan, Jason Kenney began his political life as a Liberal in 1988, serving as executive assistant to Ralph Goodale, then leader of the provincial Liberal Party.

    SENIORS UNITED NOW LOCAL AUTHORITIES PENSION PLAN COST OF LIVING ADVOCACY PROJECT IDENTIFY THE ISSUE: Alberta pensioners annual cost of living adjustment is currently based on only 60% of the Canadian consumer price index. For the average government pensioner this calculated to a 0.96% increase, which in dollars amounts to about a $10.00 monthly increase, resulting in a further fall behind of the real inflation rate. The Alberta Provincial Government promised cost of living adjustments to be comparable to the C.P.I. but continues to break this promise. A recent press release from the Local Authorities Pension Plan indicates the total elimination of the Cost of Living Adjustment!
