Fourteen United Conservative Party members of the Alberta legislature, including seven cabinet ministers, are now facing recall petitions after Elections Alberta approved five more petitions on Nov. 25.
The latest UCP caucus members to face recall petitions include Minister of Affordability and Utilities Nathan Neudorf, Minister of Children and Family Services Searle Turton, and MLAs Glenn Van Dijken, Jackie Lovely, and Jason Stephan, according to Elections Alberta. The approvals bring the total number of UCP MLAs facing recall to nearly a third of the party’s caucus, amid a wave of challenges that began late last month.
