Elections Alberta is the non-partisan, independent body tasked with maintaining the integrity of Alberta’s electoral system. It looks into political parties, candidates and other interested organizations that might play a role in our elections.On Friday, Elections Alberta interviewed Parker for around two hours hoping to get a look at the registered third-party advertiser’s finances.
TBA was co-founded by Parker in 2021 in response to anger over COVID-19 restrictions implemented under then-premier Jason Kenney. The group has since transformed into awithin the UCP with critics arguing Parker has the ear of Premier Danielle Smith, who attended his wedding last year. At leastParker was notified last November of the investigation by Elections Alberta in relation to the “activities and financial filings” of TBA and Parker himself as chief executive and financial officer.
When he emerged two hours later, Parker said: “They’re trying to claim that townhalls, where I tell my story and encourage people to get involved in politics, were election advertising because I say I don’t like the NDP.” TBA has been registered as a political third-party advertiser since February, 2022, and an election third-party advertiser since last April.
