Jason Kenney

A leaked audio recording appears to show that a contender for the leadership of Alberta's newly-formed United Conservative Party was pushed into running to foil the efforts of a top rival to eventual contest winner Jason Kenney. 

Alberta's United Conservative leader says he regrets comments made in his earlier days about overturning a law extending hospital visitation rights to gay couples during the 1980s AIDS epidemic in San Francisco.

The federal government is opposing a pitch by Alberta's United Conservative Party for intervener status in an upcoming court case in Saskatchewan over the national carbon tax.

A federal public servant who attended secret cabinet meetings about the $700-million shipbuilding contract at the centre of the criminal case against Vice-Admiral Mark Norman told the RCMP that electoral considerations were front and centre as successive governments approved the project.

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says if Opposition Leader Jason Kenney of the United Conservatives is serious about eradicating extremist views in his party, he can start with a member who compared the LGBTQ flag to the swastika.

Will a price on carbon be a central issue in Alberta's 2019 election? With opinion polls that show Jason Kenney’s United Conservative Party has a wide lead over Premier Rachel Notley's NDP, and signs that oilpatch leaders are undermining the government's approach to pollution, the pressure is on for Notley's team to show their work on the economy, climate change and renewable energy issues.

While Tuesday’s election dominated the news, a key climate vote ended in a triumph for big oil. 

The Alberta Energy Regulator is apologizing for a “staggering” presentation, made last February by one of its highest-ranking officials, warning the province’s oilpatch that it could be sitting on an estimated $260 billion in financial liabilities.

The staggering estimate of $260 billion in financial liabilities for the oil and gas industry’s graveyard of spent facilities were spelled out by a high-ranking official of the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) in a February presentation to a private audience in Calgary.

Alberta United Conservative Leader Jason Kenney has turfed a party member who once ran the call centre for his leadership bid amid reports the worker is behind an online store that sells white supremacist memorabilia.

Rachel Notley has made it official, announcing she will run again in the next election, touting her government's record while slamming opponent Jason Kenney as a self-serving policy huckster.

In their announcement, Trudeau and his ministers will specify how much revenue they expect to collect from carbon pricing and subsequently return directly to people who live in each of the non-complying provinces. The fees would be collected through a federal tax on products that contribute to climate change such as gasoline.

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says Opposition Leader Jason Kenney must stop "dog-whistle" politics that allow hateful extremists to believe they have a home in his United Conservative Party.

A raucous crowd of more than 1,500 crammed into a Calgary convention centre on Friday, October 5, 2018, night to hear Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Jason Kenney, leader of Alberta's Opposition United Conservative Party, rail against the federal carbon tax.

The premiers of Saskatchewan and Ontario welcomed another province into their anti-carbon-tax tent on Thursday, October 4, 2018, and said the fight against Ottawa's plan to put a price on pollution is gaining momentum.
