Police were called to a North Edmonton home Saturday evening after a physical altercation between the homeowner and a Progressive Conservative candidate.
Precisely what happened, however, isn't clear.
Education Minister Thomas Lukaszuk was door-knocking in his north Edmonton riding of Castle Downs Saturday when he was, according to the PC party, “assaulted by a constituent.” But the homeowner told reporters he shoved Mr. Lukaszuk to get him off his property.
“I grabbed him by the sweater and turned him around and started pushed him off my property,” Al Michalchuk, a supporter of the Wildrose Party, told CTV. “And he still, he would turn around and he wouldn't leave.”
