The myth Alberta 'subsidizes' the rest of Canada is the most powerful meme in the separatist armoury. But it's utterly false. I show that most Albertans get more back from federal programs than they personally pay in federal taxes, for @TheTyee: thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026/09/1… #abpoli /2

No, Alberta Does Not ‘Subsidize’ the Rest of Canada | The Tyee

The vast majority of workers get more from federal programs than they give.

This is bigger than a boycott now. 🇨🇦 TIME reports: 69% are choosing Canadian products even when they cost more. 55% have stopped buying specific American brands. $10 BILLION could be redirected back into Canada’s economy every year.

Fall morning in St. John’s looking toward the Narrows of the Harbour. This was one of those sunrises where the sky just kept getting better as the light came up.I liked the way the fall leaves and branches framed the view looking toward the Narrows and houses along the hillside.

US subsidizes dairy yet uses Canadian stumpage system as excuse for massive levies on Cdn lumber, even tho 3rd party panels rejected argument this was subsidy. US dairy comes into Canada free of duty. I’m tired of hearing about dairy from US negotiators

My latest, on Canada as outlier: the only country in the G7, and one of very few in the OECD, in which the far right is not a serious political player. Pierre Poilievre deserves some of the credit, although Jamil Jivani may be about to change that. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…
