We are one country under one flag, we support one another, it is the road to survival and prosperity. How soon do Saskatchewanites and Albertans forget the support they recieved in the past and start whining that they deserve more.
SUCK IT UP ASSHOLE.
Sask. Premier Brad Wall asks Ottawa to send money back while oil prices low
Saskatchewan's premier wants the federal government to consider returning a portion of the money it is taking from so-called "have" provinces while energy prices are low.
Brad Wall says provincial taxpayers in Saskatchewan continue to send hundreds of millions of dollars Ottawa's way through their taxes.
The federal government sends money out to poorer provinces through its equalization program.
Wall says because of a lag in calculating those payments, Saskatchewan is sending money when its resource economy is struggling.
He says the same is true for other energy-dependent provinces, such as Alberta and Newfoundland and Labrador.
When this loser pays back the nearly 5 decades of equalization payments his Province received then maybe, just maybe we can talk.....
