The ministers include Myles McDougall, Muhammad Yaseen, Rajan Sawhney, RJ Sigurdson, and Dale Nally, along with Speaker Ric McIver. The UCP caucus emphasized that recalls should address serious misconduct, not political disagreements. Petitioners must gather 60% of the votes cast in their ridings by February 22, with Elections Alberta verifying results by March 15.
