It was a few years now, but I remember reading that Ottawa extracts $8,000 per year from every man, woman, and child in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia for re-distribution in other regions. I don't think this number has seen any recent reductions. Now I ask myself what I'd value most, $8,000 per year, compounded over my lifetime in my pocket, or having Bi-lingualism, Mountain re-naming, Young Offenders Acting, Gun Controlling, Health Care Chopping, Oil Stealing, Metric Throat-ramming, Liberal government in Ottawa buying support to perpetuate themselves at my expense.
Well said, and I bet you would rather have the 8 g's in your pocket.......... right? |
