Calming the furor over equalization

[mentalfloss]

You are really to ignorant to even think of alternatives.

Good luck with that provincial election buddy. I hear Redford is going to be a real treat for you! :lol:

Well, I think you easterner are also the ones that need the luck. After this election is over, eastern equalization is going to change.....think you'll get more...hahaha!!!

Actually, yes.

The federal equalization program would be cheaper each year for taxpayers, better for Ontario, if it was based on a fairer formula.

Equalization hurts Ontario, study finds

​

 

[Durry]

It will and the XL. First you have to play the enviro game and various other fluff issues to quasi appease the minions. We are 20 years into this already. There is no turning back.

I agree !!

 

[mentalfloss]

Buh-bye Durry.

Come again when you need another shellacking.

All the more reason to get rid of the plan.

You sure do like to disagree with yourself, lol

Nope. I'll give you my pocket change but if you say it's not good then so be it. I'll put it in my change jar.

Yeah, but that would be the logical thing to do but the easterns are not capable of thinking logically!! History has shown this time and time again.

They could always up their beer taxes to the same level other provinces collect.

Still haven't recovered from the fact that Ontario isn't getting enough, eh?

It's a tough life to be so ignorant. Probably a fault of the western nanny state.

 

[mentalfloss]

Oh and by the way Durrrry, I heard a little newsbite today that Ontario contributes more than double toward equalization than they receive back, despite the fact that they are a have-not province.

It looks like your elitist, western tone is a load of baloney.

 

[petros]

Straight cash or per capita?

 

[Durry]

What's Ontario's debt? $260 B ? Hahaha, what a bunch of eastern idiots. All they know is how to spend money, and beg money from Western provinces to help them pay their bills...

 

[petros]

What's Ontario's debt? $260 B?

Sweet. It's up $20B since last year. That diminishes ON's ability to raise capital meaning an even bigger suck on the teat for this year.

Well no one want to lend them money, they can't even put tires on cars efficiently, they have to be subsidized or their industries protected by import tax.
Besides, who would want to lend monet to an easterner money anyways???

That should read, lend money to an easterner !!
