But let's not try to lobby for change, because you know there would be no sympathy? Wut?
Can't wait till the day we get paid by Ontario haha.Alberta Finance Minister Joe Ceci said he gets phone calls and letters from residents asking why the province still contributes to equalization when it is experiencing negative economic growth. However, he said he has no plans to lobby Ottawa for changes because there would be little sympathy.
