I've certainly mentioned that before, with one key difference. Every new gov't in Alberta has been perceived to be further to the right. The political spectrum isn't a hard and fast "you're 32 degrees left" or whatever. Different people and parties have different views on different issues, and things are too nuanced for a one-dimensional spectrum.

The Wild Rose party is made up of people, and it's people who believe the current PCs have been running the province like a bunch of drunken sailors. Spending has been rising at an unsustainable rate, and they've generally proved to be pandering idiots. (See royalty review).
