I don't understand why in this economic crisis Alberta hasn't had the balls to say "sorry, we're suspending all transfer payments until our economic situation improves"...

It's like we need a pledge from all candidates running for premier next year that they'll pause/stop transfer payments until the pipelines get built (that includes Canada East).
