Alberta’s United Conservative Party (UCP) has filed a lawsuit against two former caucus members who want to form a party under the “progressive conservative” banner, arguing the branding legally belongs to the UCP and that its use would mislead voters.
The United Conservative Association, the society that operates the UCP, filed a lawsuit in the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta on Nov. 7 against former caucus members MLA Peter Guthrie and MLA Scott Sinclair over their plans to “revive” the Progressive Conservative Party of Alberta.
