EDMONTON—A fifth person has been slapped with fines in relation to the kamikaze campaign during the 2017 United Conservative leadership race. Jeffrey Park and his wife, Michelle Park, each made $3,500 donations to Jeff Callaway during his bid to lead the UCP. For his and his wife’s donation, Park was hit with two fines totalling $10,500 on Thursday. United Conservative Party leadership candidate Jeff Callaway has maintained his campaign in 2017 was legitimate while the office of the election commissioner carries out an investigation into irregular financial campaign contributions. A cache of leaked emails obtained by the Star in March showed the Jason Kenney campaign pulling the strings on the Callaway campaign to undermine Kenney’s biggest rival, former Wildrose Party Leader Brian Jean.
