Jason Kenney steps down after 51.4 per cent approval in leadership review

Jason Kenney quit as leader of his party, and premier of Alberta, Wednesday night after receiving a slight majority of support in his United Conservative Party leadership review.

“While 51 per cent of the vote passes the constitutional threshold of a majority, it clearly is not adequate support to continue on as leader,” Kenney told a crowd gathered at Spruce Meadows in Calgary.
