Kenney names senior staff

Apr 22, 2019 | 4:18 PM

Alberta premier-designate Jason Kenney has gone back to his federal roots in naming a senior member of his political staff.

Kenney has announced his new principal secretary is Howard Anglin — who was deputy chief of staff to former prime minister Stephen Harper as well as Kenney’s chief staff while he was federal immigration minister.

Katy Merrifield, who was former B.C. premier Christy Clark’s communications director, will be his executive director of communications and planning while Jamie Huckabay will remain his chief of staff, and Christine Myatt will continue as his press secretary.

“This group of talented, passionate individuals has the right mix of public and private-sector experience. Each will be a tremendous asset as we begin to action our ambitious, jobs-focused agenda,” said Kenney in a release. “I have no doubt that together, this team will help to deliver on our promise to get Alberta back to work.”
