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!

Read this Canadian veteran's response to his third grade daughter's school after they asked her to perform the "land acknowledgement" on Remembrance Day.
"Yesterday, I received an email from my 8 year old daughters school informing me that she has been selected to perform the "land acknowledgment" in her schools upcoming Remembrance Day ceremony.
While my initial reaction was "the hell she is!", I had a night to sleep on it, and crafted my response seen below.
We will not be a part of this virtue signalling that is now quickly becoming a slippery slope across Canada.
Dear Ms. ------ and Mr. ------,
I am writing as the parent of ------ ------, a Grade 3 student at ------ Elementary, regarding the upcoming Remembrance Day ceremony on November 11th. Ms. ------recently informed me that my daughter ------has been selected to deliver the land acknowledgement at the start of the event.
While I appreciate the school's efforts to honour this significant day and involve students in ...
If 2 more conservatives go over to the liberals we will have to say good-bye to any of our rights. C2, 7 and 8 will go through. I am not as concerned about the budget as those bills. We can eventually recover from devastating budgets, but not from these bills.
If this happens we REALLY can't split the UCP vote unless we want another NDP government with a Carney majority. Where would that leave the independence movement? Will there be enough Albertan's who would be willing to leave Canada?
