Alberta’s Referendum Leader Announced | Calgary News

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has tapped Parkland MP Dane Lloyd — a military veteran and Alberta caucus chair — to lead the campaign to keep Alberta in Canada ahead of a pivotal October 19 referendum. Lloyd will be tasked with listening to Albertans’ concerns and rallying national unity, as the party pushes a message of “win-win” solutions: repealing Liberal policies on resources and gun control while promoting pipelines, housing, lower taxes, and safety. Poilievre frames the referendum as an opportunity to deliver better deals within Confederation, not as a threat to national unity — even as some within the Alberta caucus have been reluctant to publicly back staying united.
