I was perusing through some of Vassy Kapelos interviews, she's done four with Jason Kenney.
Vassy was Global's Alberta Bureau Chief before she took on Power and Politics. In going through Kenney's latest interview, I found an interesting comment:
If Alberta was a self governing American Commonwealth like Puerto Rico, not only would Alberta be facing this virus with a powerful economy and full coffers, but surely SOME of the BILLIONS of dollars that have been transferred to rest of Canada, as well as the nearly equal BILLIONS that have been transferred to international oil companies through low prices due to Rest of Canada's war on Alberta's market access would have been spent on building more and better hospitals, and Alberta would not be facing this with a healthcare system already stressed to the breaking point before the crisis hits. Remember to blame every death of every loved one in the coming weeks to being a part of Canada, because that is where the blame belongs
