  • Ed Stelmach became Alberta's premier-elect to succeed Ralph Klein in the early morning hours of Sunday, December 3, 2006. This was the result of the provincial Progressive Conservative Party's election to pick a new leader. Stelmach had been a third-place contender, but came up the middle to win the race over the favoured frontrunners. He officially became the province's premier on December 15.
