You take a line from around Pilot Mound north to Neepawa up to Dauphin to Swan River across the border to about Tisdale south to Regina and then South to Weyburn to the US border and you would be hard pressed to find any real differences between any of the people there.
The Ranching culture of SW SK and Southern Alberta is hard to tell apart.
Same as for NW SK (South of Medow Lake) and NE Alberta (Wainright, Vegreville areas)
But to an European who would drive across the Prairies? I would argue that they would have a hard time (except for maps, road signs and license plates) telling the three provinces apart.

Yep, basically the way of life in one particular area or another is not defined by a political border or it's longitude, it's defined more by the environment and the natural geological borders. Only the immediate vicinity of urban areas are significantly defined politically.
