It's pretty clear that Pallister is blatantly copying Brad Wall by attempting to provoke fights with the feds over everything, even if that means squandering opportunities at getting the feds to back provincial projects. The difference of course being that Manitoba can't go it alone like some of the other provinces... not a lot is going to happen here without federal help.
Bottom line, Pallister has prioritized his political fortunes over what's best for the province.
