QUESTIONING EQUALIZATION PAYMENTS

Brian Jean:  Why should Albertans continue to pay into a system that subsidizes cheap daycare and tuition for Quebec, while Quebec politicians actively engage in blocking critical pipeline infrastructure for our province? Why has Canada maintained an equalization system that has failed to encourage growth for the so-called beneficiaries for almost 50 years?
And finally, why do have-not provinces get to enjoy the wealth of Alberta’s energy sector while intentionally blocking the development of natural resources in their home provinces?
