Policy
Restore the provincial personal tax rate to a flat rate.
Flat tax policy: Restore the provincial personal tax rate to a flat rate.
Rationale
The United Conservative Party membership passed the policy to “Restore the provincial personal tax rate to a flat rate” during its founding convention. However, the current UCP leadership has yet to implement this policy, leaving grassroots members feeling disheartened and questioning the party’s commitment to its core principles. Despite this clear mandate from the members, the UCP’s leadership has yet to take action to implement this policy post-election. This discrepancy underscores the critical need for leadership accountability to the grassroots membership.
Sign the Petition
We, a grassroots group of engaged Albertans, petition the leadership of the United Conservative Party to honour the mandate established by the membership during its founding convention. The policy to “Restore the provincial personal tax rate to a flat rate” was democratically endorsed by the membership, reflecting our collective will and commitment to core party principles. However, we are disheartened by the failure of the current UCP leadership to implement this policy post-election. This discrepancy highlights the urgent need for leadership accountability to the grassroots membership. We call upon the UCP leadership to fulfill its obligation to represent the interests and priorities of the membership by promptly taking action to implement the endorsed policy.
