Thats the one thing that really bugs me about Layton.
I remember in the last election he made this point of flying over the oil sands and talking about basically how Alberta had to pay.
But I didn't see that same play flying over the factories in Ontario's manufacturing belt.
If he's going to mention what Quebecers pay, the honest next step would be to mention what Quebec receives from the Have provinces.
But no politician will ever be that blatent to Quebec.
