Two MLAs kicked out of Alberta UCP caucus hours after call for Premier Jason Kenney to resign

EDMONTON — Hours after Todd Loewen, a northern Alberta United Conservative, called on Premier Jason Kenney to resign, his colleagues ejected him from the caucus, along with Drew Barnes, another maverick MLA, from Medicine Hat.

The drama began in the early hours Thursday, when Loewen, a veteran backbencher, posted a letter to Facebook that argued “many Albertans, including myself, no longer have confidence in your (Kenney’s) leadership.”
