Alberta Premier Jason Kenney faced down a caucus revolt on Wednesday, as factions within his United Conservative Party coalesced in opposition to his leadership — but a reckoning has been put off to another day. 

MLA Searle Turton says there was no confidence vote at the meeting, but there will be news on a leadership review shortly. 

He said the focus of the discussion was on the government’s handling of the COVID-19 crisis.

“I mean, obviously it’s a brute and bashing group of MLAs, but that’s what caucus is for, having those frank conversations, and I’m thankful that we had that ability,” he said.
