You're flat out wrong.  Neither Jean nor Kenney can deal with the rotten Conservative government record in Alberta, nor with their own in the federal Conservative government so they're both tilting at Ottawa and blaming equalization.

Brian Jean is blathering about a referendum to "fix" equalization.

And Jason Kenney, ditto:

Surely you know this?  Or are you really not an Albertan at all?
