What was that SUPPOSED to insinuate?
That the Maritimes get a hell of a lot of money from the government.

Government services, including education funding and health care funding are supposed to be equal to each and every Canadian regardless of the taxes paid by the people in each province. I take it you have a problem with this.
I have a problem with perpetual welfare, which is what the equalization plan is. It is one thing to give an individual/group/province a hand up. It is another to do it forever. The system is flawed, but given the majority of the provinces benifits from it, it is unlikely to change.

It is your firm belief that Nova Scotians should not have decent schools.
I made no such statement. You may apologize to me for stating such a lie, and I will thank you for not attempting to speak for me in the future.
