Your larger point is right, but Jim Prentice actually campaigned on addressing some of the structural revenue problems in Alberta and got destroyed for it.
The lack of a truly fiscally conservetive party in Alberta is mainly because it’s not politically viable.

Prentice didn't lose because of his campaign platform, he lost because of a decade of baggage from his predecessors ending in the disastrous Redford government. He could have campaigned on finding world peace and still lost the election.
