Just a thought for CP policy analysts and economists, but shouldn't we expect the largest and most populace province to be a Have province? I always thought that Ontario being a Have Not province was something that the Ontario Province government should be ashamed of. I understand that the manufacturing collapse took out their economic might, but it always struck me as the smaller province holding up the larger and more popular provinces in Canada.

Ontario taxpayers contribute $6.7 billion dollars to the equalization payments and they expect to get back $2.4 billion according to that article. Basically looks like everyone is paying Quebec.
Its not like Alberta is a have province because they are spectacularly managed. They just hit the resource goldmine.
