If Ontario is not a 'have not' province then why will they recieve $1.4 Billion dollars in equalization (with a 'z') in 2017/18?

And you can talk about Ontario the largest 'this and that', but if you put the numbers in a 'per capita' form they won't be. Period. 

Not just jumping on Ontario, as the province that is habitually the biggest drawer off the 'teat' is Quebec at $11 Billion in 2017/18. 

BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan have received NOTHING in equalization for the last ten years, probably much longer than that.
