DescriptionEDMONTON -- Two small right-wing political parties in Alberta are proposing a merger in advance of an expected spring election.

The Alberta Alliance has announced on its website that both it and the Wildrose Party of Alberta will ask their membership to approve the idea.

If accepted, the merged party will call itself the Wildrose Alliance.

The leader would be Paul Hinman, member of the legislature for Cardston-Taber-Warner and current leader of the Alberta Alliance.

The proposal calls for the Wildrose Alliance to combine similar policies, adopt a constitution similar to that of the Wildrose Party, and to elect a new combined party executive.
