On July 22, 2017, members of the Progressive Conservative and Wildrose parties of Alberta voted overwhelmingly to ratify unity into the new United Conservative Party of Alberta. Jason Kenney was elected as the new leader on October 28, 2017.

As a party, we stand united on the following principles that guide our vision for a stronger Alberta:

- A robust civil society made up of free individuals, strong families, and voluntary associations.

- Freedom of speech, worship and assembly.

- Affirm the family as the building block of society and the means by which citizens pass on their values and beliefs and ensure

that families are protected from intrusion by government.

- Economic freedom in a market economy which encourages the creation of wealth through free enterprise, and protection of

the right to own, enjoy and exchange property.

- Limited government, including low levels of taxation to help generate economic growth while allowing Albertans to enjoy the

fruits of their own labour.

- Fiscal responsibility, including balanced budgets, debt reduction, and respect for taxpayers' money.

- Protecting public safety as a primary responsibility of government.
