Not to get too nitpicky, but I recall that one of those, Amber Trails, got going in the 90s during the Filmon PC years (although when it was initially approved, I don't know... might well have been during the Pawley government). But of course Amber Trails didn't really hit high gear until the 2000s when the Doer NDP was in office.
But generally yes, it does seem that the recent suburban booms have coincided with NDP governments. The 70s (Schreyer) and 80s (Pawley) for sure, then very little development of any kind during the Filmon (PC) years, then another boom during the Doer and Selinger years.
