How else are you going to compete with the 24 right to work jurisdictions in the United States? What about Mexico?

If a company comes to Alberta and set's up shop and creates jobs that are here in AB, as a tax payer I would be OK with that business not paying corporate tax because to me the jobs created far outweigh having a corporate tax and less jobs.
I'm a proponent of helping provide incentives to businesses but this is unrealistic if not flat-out incorrect.

The value of those jobs absolutely does not outweigh the value of that company paying taxes and the two should not be evaluated head-to-head there should be a balance of both.
