Former Canadian federal cabinet minister Jim Prentice promised to bring transparency and trust back to Alberta’s Progressive Conservative party in front of a packed room at his official campaign launch in downtown Edmonton Wednesday morning (May 21).
“I am running because I believe Alberta has before it, right now, an opportunity to achieve great things,” he said. “It’s going to take discipline and it’s going to take focus, but we will do this.”
Among the priorities he announced in his leadership bid for the party was a commitment to conservative fiscal principles, maximizing the use of natural resources, and improving the quality of life for Albertans.
