Well that's interesting!
Haultain, the only premier of the area of the Northwest Territories that is today Alberta and Saskatchewan, is recognized as having had a significant contribution towards the creation of those provinces, although he would have preferred a single large province named Buffalo. Perhaps that explains the renaming in 2020 of Wexit Saskatchewan to the Buffalo Party?
