The Wildrose Loyalty Coalition is a provincial political party in Alberta, Canada, which was formed as a split from the Wildrose Independence Party of Alberta.

History

The Wildrose Loyalty Coalition was formed in March 2023 following an internal party dispute that led to the removal of Paul Hinman as leader of the Wildrose Independence Party. ^[2] Hinman, the founder of the WIP, ousted as leader in 2022. After briefly regaining control of the party, the takeover was subsequently overturned by the court. ^[4] The WLC officially became a registered political party with Elections Alberta on May 1, 2023. ^{[5] [6]}
