Great, if this is true we are electing one of the most corrupt politicians in Alberta's history. All he needed to do was stay out of his own way and he would have been elected to the leadership of the UCP easily and won a huge landslide in the election. Hopefully the RCMP hauls him off and we get Jean instead.

If? Is there any doubt at this point?
Just a reminder but Prab Gill brought this up in February - including going to the RCMP - and was hit with a cease and desist letter by Kenney's team.
Prab Gill also brought up the Callaway campaign last year.

Callaway's campaign manager, Cameron Davies, would end up being fined for his involved in obstructing the investigation. Happy Mann - who was in Kenney's inner circle - would also end up being fined. While Lenore Eaton is not just facing fines but jailtime.
It's safe to say that Gill's allegations against the Callaway's campaign have ended up true. Why wouldn't we believe his allegation's of voter fraud by Kenney?
Quote:
Alberta's election commissioner has ruled that Hardyal Mann made irregular political contributions, and the Calgary political operative alleges the existence of a plan to commit voter fraud in order to secure the election of Jason Kenney as United Conservative Party leader — a controversy that's erupting in the midst of a provincial election.
"Mr. Kenney and his associates, who were equal participants, will assume high elected seats in our government," he wrote.
"However, those of us who did the work for them are left with fines, charges and shame. That is not fair."
The document says Mann told the commissioner that both "the finances for Jeff Callaway's campaign and voter fraud were identified as tactics that would be employed."
-------------------------
The campaign manager for former UCP leadership candidate Jeff Callaway has been fined $15,000 by Alberta's election commissioner for obstruction of an investigation.
-----------------
He said his investigation found Eaton, who was also CFO of Energize Alberta, co-signed a $2,010 cheque to Callaway’s then-communications director Cameron Davies and another worth $3,000 to staffer Jeffrey Park in September 2017. Energize Alberta, however, was prohibited under the act from making contributions.
Gibson said in lieu of a jail sentence, Eaton could face a $50,000 fine and said that his investigation is ongoing.

Multiple people, including former MLA's and Kenney staffers have said that he was involved in this.
This isn't the NDP throwing mud. It's UCP members (and former).
