The Wildrose Loyalty Coalition is a provincial political party in Alberta, Canada, which was formed as a split from the Wildrose Independence Party of Alberta.
History
[edit]The Wildrose Loyalty Coalition was formed in March 2023 following an internal party dispute that led to the removal of Paul Hinman as leader of the Wildrose Independence Party.[2] Hinman, the founder of the WIP, ousted as leader in 2022. After briefly regaining control of the party, the takeover was subsequently overturned by the court.[4] The WLC officially became a registered political party with Elections Alberta on May 1, 2023.[5][6]
