Hello, I’m Sara-Lyn Quist, my husband Larry and I have been married for 24 years. We have six children ages 7-22.
Originally from Bow Island, we now make our home in Three Hills, which is at the top end of the Southern region.
I’m an active member of our CA board. I ran the satellite campaign office in our town and organized all the volunteers for our riding in the May election.
I also ran a social media initiative during the election called Alberta Speaks, inviting Albertans to Speak Up during the election as to why they were voting conservative and to spread our message further on social media.
I stand for Family - as a mother, I saw how deeply the last 3 years affected our young people. As a daughter I saw how difficult it was for our seniors. As a friend to many, I knew I never wanted to be so deeply divided again by government overreach. I determined that I would do everything in my power to bring confidence to Albertans that they would be listened to in the future.
***I strongly support parental rights and choice in education. If we create strong families, we build strong communities, with that we create a strong province.
I stand for Advocacy - Not only did I stand up for my family, I stood up in my community and my riding. Putting on events and inviting seven MLA's to various meetings plus other speakers so people could get a chance to find out for themselves who they could trust and to connect our politicians to the people who need to be heard. Bringing politics to my community has been very important to me. All political engagement is important and should be encouraged if we’re to see consistent, good governance.
I stand for Integrity -I pledge to every Albertan that my convictions are not for sale. I listen to the values and beliefs of down to earth, common sense Albertans and my voice will represent them.
I am excited to work with our Premier, Danielle Smith. I supported her during the leadership race and the election, hosting several meetings with her. During that time I saw a strength in her to fight for Alberta that I wanted to see come to power. I stand firmly behind what she’s doing in her battle against Ottawa, for the good of Albertans and we as a board need to have her back.
I also want to work with you, engaged members in our UCP party. Together we can create long lasting change. It would be an honour to receive your support on November 4th to be your UCP Southern Director. Please call or email me if you have any questions at [email protected] or at 403-443-8494.
I look forward to meeting you at the United Conservative Party AGM on November 3rd & 4th in Calgary!

Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.
This movement should be ...

Bit of a clusterfuck going on with a “leak” before the committee vote:
Western Standard: “Details of the motion include that the committee's report be tabled with a recommendation for Lukaszuk's policy petition to be referred for the purpose of a referendum on Oct. 19, and that "the question to be put to the electors in the referendum include an option for Albertans to vote for Alberta to remain in Canada."
Lukaszuk's petition application called for a referendum asking, "Do you agree that Alberta should remain in Canada?"
Under the Citizen Initiative Act, Justice Minister Mickey Amery will have the authority to rewrite the question in a manner that he feels will ensure that "The constitutional referendum will result in a clear expression of the will of the electors. And, the question is otherwise suitable to be put to the electors...
