I suppose one of the merits of a referendum on equalization is it will mean a lot of news stories, features, etc. on how equalization actually works and what it's for. Maybe my faith in the wisdom and compassion of Canadians is misguided, but I think once people understand it transfers money from places where there are a lot of young and affluent taxpayers to places where there are more older and poor Canadians so they can keep schools and hospitals open (or at least slow the rate at which they're closing), Canadians will vote to continue supporting the program.
