Well it is a bit different. Ralph actually cut cheques prior to an election. The WRP plan is at least 3 years down the road and
only if there are surpluses.

It doesn't matter what it was spent on, it goes back into the economy. And really this is what "fair share" should have been about; Albertans getting a piece of the surplus revenue as it is always because of resource revenue being higher than expected.
