1)Really? HOW much of that 1.9 billion dollars went to the federal government in Ottawa in corporate tax????? How much remained in Alberta in royalties/Alberta corporate tax, property taxes?????? Ottawa brings in 30 billion dollars per year in corporate taxes. Of that, 1 billion came from the oil sector. The same oil sector that is responsible for 2% of Canada's GDP. Not exactly something to worry about.

2) Farmers? The problem being, it's Alberta that is constantly whining about Ontario/Quebec being subsidized while the AB farmers/oil companies take the $$$$$ and run.

3) Equalization? Ontario puts in the most, followed by Quebec, Alberta comes in 3r. (#1, #2, #3 GDP in that order) The problem being, by exploring loopholes/Laws since the late 1960's), Quebec was/is able to  get 9 billion dollars more from Ottawa while Alberta is a net loser of 7 billion.

Why? Because Alberta politicians (as Kenney) are just not that intelligent . That's why........
