David Parker, Jason Kenney's former central Alberta organizer, now founder and president of Take Back Alberta (TBA), celebrated as he heard Kenney resigned after a dismal showing with 51.4% support from the UCP leadership vote..TBA, a grassroots Conservative movement to oust Kenney from UCP leadership, gained momentum as it toured Alberta leading up to the leadership review. .The group said it was dedicated to getting Albertans to sign up as UCP members and vote Kenney out during the leadership review. ."Thank you Jason Kenney for doing the right thing," said Parker.."Democracy has prevailed. It is now time for all Conservatives in this province to focus on the real enemy which is the NDP and their socialist agenda."."We know that if the NDP were currently in power they would be attacking the unvaccinated at even greater rates."."It is time to unite Conservatives under the UCP banner. This battleship is worth saving. Let's get a good captain and a good crew and let's go to war.".Removing Kenney from the UCP leadership is just the “first step in a long series of steps” to what Parker says he hopes will be a new political force in Alberta..Should there be a leadership race, Parker says TBA has a plan in place to thoroughly vet all contenders, then recommend the chosen one based on the values of the group.
