QUOTE from the first source below:
"Between 2009 and 2018, Albertans made a net contribution of almost $240 billion to the rest of Canada. Some experts estimate that the province's total net payment to the rest of Canada since 1961 amounted to $661 billion."
"Equalization is an especially contested topic in Alberta, which its former Premier Jason Kenney pledged to remove from the Constitution."
"Despite nearly 62% of Albertans supporting the call to action from last year's referendum, his administration took no subsequent action to address the issue as outlined in its Fair Deal Panel."
