The leader of the Alberta Tories is looking into comments made by one of the party executives.
Party vice president Jordan Lien released a Facebook post that called NDP Health Minister Sarah Hoffman “morbidly obese”.
Alberta PC leader Ric McIver said he will investigate.
“This has got to be a respectful place,” he said. “All Albertans are equal, all Albertans must be respected, all Albertans must be treated with dignity. If a member of our party has fallen short, we will be having a discussion about correcting that in the future”.
Lien has apologized for the incident on his Twitter account.
