November 22, 2018 (Edmonton) – Yesterday it was reported Jason Kenney has established a transition team behind the scenes and has already begun the process of appointing senior political staffers and agencies, boards, and commissions positions.

Clark said that production should be reduced for each producer on a percentage basis based on their production.
