EDMONTON — Alberta's Wildrose Opposition wants an investigation into Premier Rachel Notley's role at an Ontario NDP fundraiser which the Wildrose says solicited donations from companies doing business in Alberta.
The Opposition says it is asking the ethics commissioner to look into Notley's involvement, because it raises questions around impartiality and the selling of access.
Cheryl Oates, Notley's spokeswoman, confirms that the premier attended the event with Ontario NDP Leader Andrea Horwath on Friday at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto.
Oates says the trip was not charged to the government and donations went to the Ontario NDP.
Bruce Logan, Horwath's senior adviser, was not immediately available for comment.
Wildrose says sources report that attendees were promised close access and there were no more than 20 people at the event.
