Thats amusing, buts its more than one issue. Its pretty central to a right wing ideology. The point is government staying out of private business. Wall went as far as he could to block the sale, which is definitely nowhere near a right-wing position. Truth be told I think that he had to block that sale and it was the right thing to do....but that doesn't make it right wing either.
Slava, you forgot to explain how all of crazy_eoj's other points are indicative of a "small gap" between Sask Party and NDPs. Personally, I don't see a small gap at all. These points are pretty much ideologically opposed from an NDP perspective. As he stated, cherry-picking one and attributing it to being THE fundamental issue is misleading. Find one ideologically-pure party of any persuasion (viable party, that is.)
