He called for an end to the federal carbon tax, renegotiation of the equalization formula, and the approval of new pipeline projects.

[10] The group emphasized that their priority was to pressure Moe to hold a referendum on separation for the province, and that if he did not agree to do so they would form a party with that goal in mind.

[17] The party planned to launch a formal leadership selection process at its annual general meeting in the fall of 2021.

However, on September 12, PC leader Rose Buscholl announced that the talks had ended without an agreement, citing the Buffalo Party's "extensive focus on out-of-scope federal and international issues" as a deal-breaker.

[20] In February 2025, the Buffalo Party faced online backlash opposing its scheduled March 1, 2025 fundraising event at the German Club in Regina, SK.

[21] The event, titled “Should Saskatchewan Become the 51st US State?”—has drawn online commenters to call for plans to protest—which prompted the political party to hire security and ask for a police presence in case protests do happen.

[21] The fundraiser will feature Lee Harding (has written for Epoch Times and Western Standard) speaking, Lise Merle (has written for Rebel News) to speak in favour of removing “radical gender ideology from education”, to end with a panel discussion and a “mock audience vote” on whether to separate from Canada or not.

The party ran on a platform opposing public health mandates—the 2020 election took place during the COVID-19 pandemic—and proposing tax cuts; during the campaign, Sira also claimed that the province was not being negatively impacted by climate change.

[26] The Buffalo Party contested a provincial by-election in September 2022 in Saskatoon Meewasin, with former People's Party of Canada candidate Mark Friesen as its candidate;[27] Friesen, a prominent protester of public health measures who was sent to Ontario for intensive care treatment for COVID-19, finished fourth.

[32] While the Buffalo Party's primary aim has been to secure a referendum on independence for Saskatchewan, much of its politics have been described as traditionally right-wing and populist.

[19][31] In recent years, there has been a proliferation of right-wing political movements in the province, and Zajac has stated that he has invited other groups to join the Buffalo Party.
