If you divide $45,000 by half the estimated Alberta population it works out to $0.02 per person. I know that's not mathematically how it works, but it's a lot of outrage over something that doesn't even exist anymore...pennies.

I agree with you if it starts to get into that millions, then yes, there's a problem that needs to be addressed, but if this is all the media can dig up (and no doubt they'd dig up more if they could) then it's Fox News type click fodder and faux-outrage. IMO.
