The equalization referendum was stupid. Alberta is of course going to be biased about equalization since we're the richest province per capita. Equalization was designed to take wealth from Alberta, so no shit they're not going to like it.

Problem is, everyone knows AB doesn't like it, so making it 'official' in a referendum achieves jack shit. At least we didnt waste a lot by having the referendum - it was tacked on to our municipal election block.
