It's going to be embarrassing to watch Edmonton to elect another progressive as mayor, while we bring in another Kenney lapdog.
I would assume the equalization thing will pass in a landslide. Generations of inbreeding have rendered wide swaths of this province immune to common sense and reason. The fact that these rural dolts can't even grasp the simple concept of where funding comes from, and why Alberta "pays more" is truly an awe-inspiring level of ignorance.

Wow. Even I struggle to be this cynical this early in the morning.
I have no issues with a review of Equalization....if there were some point to it. I actually think it should be reviewed regularly so as to accurately reflect the current economic circumstances.
Besides, a 'review' isnt a 'Trial by Combat' or anything. Its giving our Government some busy-work. Its not like its going to effect market circumstances or anything.
My only real issue with a review of equalization is that its going to be reviewed by people that I largely consider idiots.
Thats like me asking 'Cletus the Yokel' to review the theory of relativity. He'll do it, but his conclusions will be of dubious quality at best.
