Alberta is not not losing capital, you have to get rid of this baffling notion, the capital belongs to the Canadian people not a government or province. To think so would imply that if we were to "keep it" you'd have to put that money into an APP and give the Alberta gov access to it, or have them direct it into heavier local investments. Then we wouldn't be "losing it" but that would not be beneficial to you or I.
