Alberta UCP staff attended meeting about voter database before site was shut down

Alberta’s governing United Conservative Party caucus said staff attended a separatist group’s virtual meeting about its website two weeks before the site became the focus of investigations into a massive personal-data breach. The report raises cybersecurity and governance concerns, but it is primarily political news rather than a direct market-moving event. No financial figures were disclosed.
