Regarding B.C’s David Eby and Quebec refusing to allow oil & gas pipelines through their provinces, I have a suggestion. When it comes time to issue our billions in transfer payments, Alberta should calculate how much of those transfer dollars come from oil & gas. Make what each province will get public knowledge. Then, richer provinces like B.C. and Quebec can decline this portion, so other needy provinces and territories can benefit from the resource bounty. I wonder if B.C. and Quebec will put their principles aside and take the money. Perhaps they will act like Canadians and forgo the money to benefit others. Somehow I don’t think their patriotism will exceed the money.
