Candice is the former Leader of the Official Opposition and the Conservative Party of Canada.

Over her 15-year tenure as a Member of Parliament, she held senior leadership roles and served in Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s cabinet.

Though retired from elected office, she continues to contribute to federal and provincial political and policy conversations.

Candice now works as a strategic advisor in the private sector, specializing in natural resources, defense, and technology. 

Erika Barootes knows the Alberta government inside and out—from the premier’s office to the heart of policy-making and most things in between. As the first president of the United Conservative Party, she played a pivotal role in shaping the party’s strategy and preparing for its victories in the 2019 and 2023 provincial elections, notably serving as Principal Secretary to Premier Danielle Smith in the critical lead-up to the general election.

Today, Erika is Director of External Relations and Department Head for the Applied Politics and Public Affairs Program at MaKami College, where she led the institution’s transition to a publicly funded Independent Academic Institution (IAI) and launched a first-of-its-kind diploma in applied politics. This innovative program equips students with practical skills for careers in government, advocacy, and public service through hands-on learning and community engagement.

Beyond education, Erika is committed to supporting local business, culture, and heritage, with experience managing a major utility’s brand and serving Alberta’s public affairs sector.

MCpl (ret) Bonnie Critchley, CD is a proud Canadian veteran, a fifth-generation service member, and an unapologetically independent political leader who stepped forward to represent the people of Battle River-Crowfoot in the 2025 by-election.

After serving 22 years in the Canadian Army, including breaking barriers as the second woman in a Combat Arms unit, Bonnie continues her lifelong commitment to public service by standing up for fair democracy and the needs of her community.

Bonnie’s military career is marked by a legacy of leadership and resilience. She was only the second woman to serve as an Armoured Crewman in her unit and eventually rose to become the highest-ranked woman in her trade in unit history. 

Her service also included making history as part of the first father-daughter gunnery crew in the Royal Canadian Armoured Corps.

These accomplishments speak to her strength, tenacity, and no-nonsense approach to leadership, qualities she now brings to her political life.

After retiring from the military, Bonnie relocated to East-Central Alberta, first to Kneehill County to help with her parents’ horse breeding operation, and later settling in Beaver County with her husband, their dogs, and horses. 

Bonnie has spent her post-military life immersed in her community, supporting local businesses, volunteering for mental health and veterans’ initiatives, and continuing her advocacy for those too often overlooked.

What sparked Bonnie’s decision to enter federal politics was not ambition, but principle.

Having served in Afghanistan and seen the consequences of democratic erosion firsthand, Bonnie could not stay silent.

She knew she had to act.

Bonnie ran as an Independent because she believes that true representation cannot come from party loyalty, it must come from accountability to the people.

She was able to build a huge grassroots following during the campaign, reaching out to thousands of people on social media- and she took almost 10% of the vote in the by-election!

With Bonnie Critchley, what you see is what you get: a straight shooter, a servant of the people, and a woman who leads with strength and heart.
