In reality it doesn't matter who makes up the provincial govt. There is very little any party could do (with the exception of making a fuss) to change the outcome. It's a federal issue regulated by several departments that are supposed to remain impartial on these matters.

Of course it does- you even gave the answer in your post! If the NDP were still holding power, they would be much more likely to make a public display about how this would hurt Manitoba. They would be a lot more likely to appeal to Manitobans to write and express their concern over the sale of MTS. With the PC government, they are likely to support it, so it garners more political support under a PC regime and has a greater chance of moving forward without stern public opposition.
