So the Premiers met what . . . four times? Their goal was to come to an agreement on Equalization (stealing from Peter to pay Paul). They couldn’t come to an agreement. The Finance Minister told them repeatedly that if they couldn’t, he would decide. So now you’ve got whiners in the Maritimes and whiners in Saskatchewan who for the first time in years are realizing that they have no choice but to get off the pogey from Alberta and Ontario.
What have we got? A lot of bickering over sharing the wealth. Excuse me?
The Maritimes and Saskatchewan have been on the dole for decades and now that there is some wealth they want to whine about how much goes to the other have-nots? I’m sorry Mr Williams and Mr. Calvert. You shouldn’t even have input. Pay your share and shut up already.
Wahh, “Promise” this, and Wahh, “Accord” that. Well deal with it you whiny, about to go into election, haves.
You didn’t hear Alberta complain about a measly 800 Million. Sure, maybe 8 BILLION.
Gods, here we are in the middle of the largest boom in Sask since early last century and these misers are afraid to share? Is there a disconnect between socialist theory and socialist policy? I thought sharing was the whole point?

You laugh at Statscan figures?
