PRINCE ALBERT – A fourth Saskatchewan Party MLA has been nominated again to run in the 2028 provincial election.
Alana Ross, MLA for Prince Albert Northcote, was officially chosen at a nomination meeting Aug. 19. The party said her nomination was by acclamation.
Ross will be seeking a third term representing the constituency she has held since 2020. She currently serves in cabinet as Minister of Parks Culture and Sport and as Minister for the Status of Women, Tourism Saskatchewan, and Francophone Affairs.
"Prince Albert is my home, and representing this community is the honour of my life," Ross said in a news release. "I will keep working hard every day to earn the trust and support of the people of Northcote."
Prince Albert Northcote has typically been one of the hardest-fought contests in the province in recent elections between the Sask Party and NDP. Ross won narrow victories in both the 2020 and 2024 provincial elections.
Ross' nomination follows on the heels of nominations for Scott Moe (Rosthern – Shellbrook), Ken Cheveldayoff (Saskatoon Willowgrove) and Terry Jenson (Warman) earlier this year.
The Sask Party had committed itself to nominating candidates earlier in time for the next election, and so far are living up to that pledge. According to the party more nominations are on the way.
The party plans to hold a nomination meeting in Saskatoon Chief Mistowasis riding on Aug. 31, followed by White City-Qu'Appelle on Sept. 9 (currently held by Brad Crassweller), Saskatoon Meewasin on Sept. 10 and Saskatchewan Rivers (held by Eric Schmalz) on Sept. 15.
