It is not at all clear to me how Jason Kenney would stop equalization payments to Quebec. As far as I know, the only handle he would have in the matter is withholding payment of his own federal income tax.

The Government of Alberta contributes little to the federal revenues from which come equalization payments. Largely, those payments come from general federal government revenues. It is certainly true that Albertan taxpayers - corporate, business, personal - all pay a lot into that pool in our federal taxes. Does a Premier Kenney believe he could lead an Albertan tax revolt? Is that what he is saying, Margaret Wente?
