CBC's Lyndsay Duncombe did a piece on equalization for the National, interviewing Trevor Tombe and Tegan Hill of the Fraser Institute, but pretended the math and formula is complicated and hard to understand. It isn't that difficult. Quebec keeps domestic hydro rates artificially low through Hydro-Québec, which slashes its...

Watch Stephane Dion rail against Alberta and Danielle Smith over separation—with all the spittle and head-jiggling theatrics—yet when asked about his own Quebec, it’s suddenly just “foolish” This wasn’t an interview. It was a hellfire-and-damnation sermon against a Premier and a province for doing exactly what Quebec and its separatists have done for decades Rosie doesn’t even try to point out—or question—Dion’s avalanche of opprobrium aimed at Alberta but never at Quebec separatists. Worse, she actually encourages it The irony never ends: Alberta has sent hundreds of billions in equalization payments to Quebec, yet Dion warns Albertans they’d be forced to “share the dividends of their natural resources with 240 million Americans” if they left. This interview is a perfect example of everything wrong with CBC’s coverage of Alberta separatism. Stéphane Dion Rosemary Barton Danielle Smith

⚜️🖕🇨🇦 : I am so fed up with Quebec demanding they get special treatment in Canada, at the expense of everyone else. Are you just as fed up? The Bloc Québécois demand that Quebec tax dollars to only be invested in Quebec. The Bloc Québécois says they must protect key sectors of the Quebec economy & the French language. At the same time Quebec takes in huge sums of taxes from the rest of Canada through a rigged equalization formula that gives Quebec over $13 billion every year in “equalization”. This despite Quebec having a comparable economic strength to British Columbia, which is forced to pay into equalization. Quebec gets to hide their #1 source of natural revenue (Hydro) from the equalization formula, making them poor on paper only. Quebec also gets extra Canadian taxpayer cash for… 💰Immigration 💰Heritage 💰Culture 💰Languages 💰French only government jobs 💰Corporate bailouts 💰SNC Lavalin contracts across 🇨🇦 Meanwhile Quebec demands the rest of Canada shift away from oil & gas to Quebec approve clean energy. This directly hurts Alberta and the rest of Canada that relies on equalization payments, to keep their Provinces from becoming super poor. This also stifled foreign investment because it adds an extra layer of uncertainty to any major oil & gas project. Yet Quebec is quite happy to allow foreign oil to pour into the Canadian economy. Time to treat Quebec like everyone else. There is nothing special about a Province that leeches off the poor, while claiming they're a Nation in waiting.

Smith yesterday "So do you hope that Quebec will approve a new gas pipeline from Alberta like the one that is proposed by Marinvest?" "if there was a possibility for us to restart that conversation, I'd be open to it." "As you may know, Alberta Oil already comes to Quebec by way of line nine." "And then it gets put into a tanker and comes up to Quebec. It's part of the reason why I'm going to be able to fly home today, because aviation fuel from Alberta processed here is going to fill the plane that gets me back to my province." Danielle Smith

Yves Francois Blanchet says that he will go on the world stage to crap on Quebec while he uses Saudi oil, ignores his own cement plants, and collects Alberta transfer payments "We will go on the world stages to say that Alberta is destroying, destroying the environment of the whole planet." 🤡 Blanchet's smug superiority is based in being a sponge for equalization payments. Cut him off from all those dirty billions and see how long Yves chante cette chanson arrogante Yves-F. Blanchet 🎗⚜️

Althia Raj claims false claims about equalization are fueling Alberta separation Althia Raj v Trevor Tombe "But also a lot of people completely misunderstand how equalization work, and they're upset about something that just actually is not true." Tombe "Just just to illustrate magnitudes here, if Quebec's power prices were 2 cents a kilowatt higher, and they would still maintain the lowest power prices $0.02 a kilowatt higher, and we didn't fix the size of the equalization program as we do now, then Quebec's equalization payment would fall by about $4.2 billion this year." Althia needs to clarify that remark! Althia Raj

CBC's Janyce McGregor admits that Alberta is using the Quebec playbook to seek similar provincial control over immigration "Yeah, it seems like that could be what they're angling for here, using tactics similar to what we've seen used in Quebec," But can anyone ever recall McGregor flipping out like this over Quebec? Do you ever see her rail about federal government overspending? PMO talking points is all Janyce has got Sounds also like Janyce could use a refresher in Equalization Janyce McGregor Danielle Smith

🚨 Alberta just dropped the nuclear option. As an Ontarian I am ENVIOUS of Premiers like Danielle Smith instead we have Liberal Doug Ford 🤦🏻‍♂️ that ONLY decides to act like a Conservative when something affects HIM personally. Premier Danielle Smith announced a public vote on October 19th: Should Alberta hold a referendum to SEPARATE from Canada? Mark Carney’s immediate response? “Dangerous bluff. Just like Brexit. You’ll regret it.” Translation: Ottawa doesn’t want Alberta keeping its own money. Here’s the brutal reality the Laurentian elite never talk about: Alberta = Canada’s Texas. Oil. Agriculture. Hard work. They generate the surplus… and Ottawa takes it via equalization payments and ships it to Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Manitoba — provinces that “can’t carry their own weight” because of decades of Liberal policies. Look at the chart (timestamp ~2:50). Alberta’s bar sticks out like a sore thumb while the have-not provinces line up for their cheque. This isn’t “unity.” This is wealth transfer on steroids. Albertans are tired of: - Funding policies they never voted for - Watching their resource wealth subsidize Ontario/Quebec priorities - Being told they’re the problem Two completely different value systems. Two different countries in all but name. Carney can call it a “bluff” all he wants. Canadians are waking up to the math: Your paycheque is being raided twice — once federally, and again provincially through this rigged system. Alberta isn’t asking permission anymore. Drop your take below: Should Alberta get the referendum? Should they actually leave? Or is Carney right and this is all just “regret later”? #AlbertaSeparation #Wexit #EqualizationTheft #MarkCarney #cdnpoli #CanadaDivided #DanielleSmith #PBDPodcast

Can someone translate for Quebeckers? "And Alberta, year after year has 20 to 25 billion dollars that is siphoned out of our system to go to Ottawa so that it can be spent mostly in Quebec, but also in other places that vote Liberal." "$600 billion in the last 40 or 50 years that have been taken out of this province." "You don't think we might be able to do a little bit more on social spending if those 20 to 25 billion dollars stayed here?" Danielle Smith Rebecca Schulz Trevor Tombe

James Moore calls it like it is "Albertans on a per capita basis have given more to confederation than any group of Canadians in this country by far." "And they've done it for a couple, two, three generations." "And they have a federal government right now whose time is ticking that has actively campaigned against their province, against their core industry, that is 1/3 of Canada's exports to the United States." "They've blocked pipelines." "They've put in place regulations that are designed to be poison pills to stop the export of Alberta oil to global markets so they can get world prices so that we can bring that money back to Canada and create Canadian jobs and pay Canadian taxes to build Canadian hospitals, schools and Canadian roads." "Albertans want to do their part for Canada, and they have for a long time." "Canada should do its part for Alberta and the west as well."💥 James Moore Danielle Smith

Raphael Melancon on CBC today: Quebec should threaten to cut off 'massive' hydro exports to the Northeast US as leverage against Trump Anchor Andrew Nichol: crickets — no pushback, no numbers, just elbows Here's the reality check, Raphael: Quebec's hydro exports to the entire US have been shrinking hard — down to ~13 TWh in 2023 from 25+ TWh earlier, and even lower recently due to low reservoirs. For New England, Quebec power was ~5% of net electricity use in 2024. For New York, Canadian imports (mostly Quebec) fell to ~3% or less lately, with periods of net exports the other way. Not "massive." Supplemental. Variable. And the new fancy lines (NECEC, CHPE) are still ramping up amid droughts and domestic Quebec demand Threatening to flip the switch would: 🔥Torch billions in Quebec revenue and contracts 🔥Hurt friendly state bridges (Vermont, Maine, NY, Mass.) that buy clean power 🔥Hand Trump a propaganda win ("Canada is cutting power to Americans!") 👩‍🦯Ignore that Trump love escalation, and Quebec's grid isn't an infinite battery This isn't bold strategy. It's the energy version of "let's burn our own leverage because it sounds so tough on teevee" Canada has real cards (critical minerals, auto integration, defense spending, etc.). Suggesting we sabotage a mutually beneficial clean energy relationship while reservoirs are low is peak unserious punditry CBC: next time, maybe ask the guest for actual data instead of letting it slide Brodie Fenlon 𝐑𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐚𝐞̈𝐥 𝐌𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜̧𝐨𝐧 🤦‍♂️

Let’s get one thing straight: Alberta does not “fund B.C.” — and B.C. isn’t some poor, helpless province clinging to Alberta’s wallet. They’ve got a booming economy, fat revenue streams, and oh yeah… a massive pipeline that everyone is lining up to applaud. Good for them. Seriously. Build it. Grow your economy. That’s what every province should be allowed to do. But here’s the part that magically gets ignored: If B.C. can build a pipeline and cash in, why does Alberta instantly get cast as the national villain for wanting to do the exact same thing? Why is resource development “visionary” for one province but “evil” when Alberta touches it? This isn’t about handouts. It’s not about who “deserves” more. It’s about the basic concept of fairness — you know, that thing Ottawa loves to preach but rarely practices. Alberta is done being told to sit quietly in the corner while other provinces run the same playbook and get showered with praise. If fairness actually means something in this country, it can’t magically stop at the B.C. border. Alberta has every right to build, grow, and protect its economy. And Alberta is CLEARLY done apologizing for it.
