Alberta’s legislature will debate a potential referendum question asking Albertans if they think the principle of equalization payments should be removed from Canada’s Constitution.
Premier Jason Kenney introduced a motion on June 7, 2021 that, if passed, will put the following question on a provincewide referendum ballot on Oct. 18, in conjunction with municipal and Senate elections:
“Should Section 36(2) of the Constitution Act, 1982 –Parliament and the Government of Canada’s commitment to the principle of making equalization payments – be removed from the Constitution?”
“Albertans elected this government to get a fair deal for them. That’s exactly what this referendum is about. For too long, Albertans have been forced to subsidize public services in other parts of the country where politicians have been trying to block our pipelines and impair our vital economic interests, even during times of great economic hardship for us. This fall, Albertans will finally get a chance to tell the federal government that they’ve had enough of the unfair equalization program, and want reforms that recognize our province’s role in creating national prosperity.” said Premier Jason Kenney.
The principle of equalization is embedded into the Constitution and is the Government of Canada’s primary transfer program for addressing fiscal imbalances between provinces.
Albertans fund equalization through federal tax contributions, which are then transferred by the federal government to other provinces for their programs and services.
However, the current program does not take into account fundamental matters of fairness, including the ability of “have provinces” – like Alberta – to contribute transfers even when their provincial economies are down.
“Justin Trudeau’s equalization program is not fair for Albertans. Their generosity is being taken for granted by leaders who are happy to receive the money but reject the jobs that produce it. Albertans will finally have the opportunity to be heard.” said Kaycee Madu, Minister of Justice and Solicitor General.
Holding a referendum on equalization was a key recommendation of the Fair Deal Panel, which submitted a report to government last year recommending several ways Alberta could strengthen its position in Confederation.
“Alberta averages almost $20 billion annually in net contributions to Confederation. Almost 10,000 Canadians commute from across Canada to work in the oilsands alone. Alberta certainly doesn't appear to be getting treated fairly and I'm very happy that our government is listening to those that spoke at our Fair Deal consultations.” said Tany Yao, MLA for Fort McMurray-Wood Buffalo and member, Fair Deal Panel.
“Equalization rewards irresponsible, anti-economic development policies while punishing responsible economic development governance. Over the past 10 years, hard-working Albertans have sent over $400 billion to some provinces that run budgetary surpluses with money that isn’t theirs. Albertans’ self-determinant spirit built this province, so it’s time we asked them whether things need to change.” said Miranda Rosin, MLA for Banff-Kananaskis and member, Fair Deal Panel.

Premier Jason Kenney announced in Calgary on July 15, 2021, that Albertans will have an opportunity to have their say on equalization and daylight saving time and elect nominees to the Senate when they vote in the fall municipal elections.
In addition to voting for Senate nominees, Albertans will be asked to vote on these two provincial topics on Oct. 18, in conjunction with the municipal elections:
Equalization payments – Should the principle of making equalization payments be removed from the Constitution?
Daylight saving time – Should Alberta end the practice of changing our clocks twice a year?
“Alberta has a long and proud tradition of grassroots, direct democracy. We will renew that tradition this fall. I encourage all Albertans to get engaged on these important issues and I look forward to taking part in the debate this fall.” said Premier Kenney.
Equalization :
Over the last 25 years, Albertans have contributed more than $400 billion more to the nation in tax dollars than they have received in federal spending. Albertans make an immense contribution to equalization through federal tax contributions, which are transferred by the federal government to other provinces for programs and services. The current program has many issues, including a formula that requires it to grow automatically with Canada’s economy, even if contributing provinces like Alberta are experiencing immense economic challenges.
Daylight saving time :
Across Canada and the United States, more governments are bringing forward legislation to move to permanent daylight saving time, also known as summer hours. In 2019, Service Alberta asked Albertans if they thought we should make a similar shift. More than 141,000 Albertans responded, of which 91 per cent were in favour of year-round summer hours.
“Changing our clocks twice a year is something that every Albertan has an opinion on. As Alberta first adopted daylight saving time following a referendum in 1971, we owe it to Albertans to give them the same opportunity to make their voices heard now that we are considering another change.” said Nate Glubish, Minister of Service Alberta.
Senate elections :
Along with the municipal elections and the two referendum questions this fall, Albertans will elect three Senate nominees – one for each of the two current vacancies and one in case of early retirement.
The Senate nominee election enhances democracy in the province by allowing Albertans to choose the individuals who will best represent them in Parliament. Having representatives elected by Albertans would increase senators’ accountability to Alberta voters to defend the province’s interests.
Provincial police and pension :
For the topics of creating an Alberta Police Service and Alberta Pension Plan, further analysis and work are underway before next steps are determined.
“Through the Fair Deal Panel, Albertans who are policed by the RCMP said that they want to see Alberta build its own provincial police service to improve policing in their communities. We are continuing to study what this could look like and how it could improve the safety and security of Albertans and their property, as part of making an informed decision on the next steps.” said Kaycee Madu, Minister of Justice and Solicitor General.
“The potential creation of an Alberta Pension Plan would be a significant decision for Albertans. As such, we are continuing the important work of completing an actuarial, economic and structural analysis so Albertans can make an educated and well-informed choice, and their questions and concerns can be adequately addressed. We look forward to putting this important decision on the table when the time is right.” said Travis Toews, President of Treasury Board and Minister of Finance.

It was goals-a-plenty in this West Lancashire League Premier Match with Lostock taking a 24th minute lead but going in at half time level after a late goal. Lostock regained the lead early in the second with Oxley getting his brace but 2 goals from Whitehaven took them in front. Matty Bulcock fired in an equalizer from distance to level once again. LSG finished the game with 9 players after late dismissals for Wilkinson and Riding.

We've played extensively with the Equalizer Double-Trouble crank and found conclusively that it kicks truckloads of ass.
It's no surprise, since this beast rips off around 30 rounds per second. With a couple of flips of the Gatlin-style crank, you've got half a pod of paint in the air, sailing toward a cowering foe.
When we absolutely, positively need the opposition to put their heads down, we bring up our Heavy Gunner and his Double-T. He rips off a couple hundred rounds and everyone hits the dirt (and then we charge up under the firestorm and bunker 'em all.)
Also, we've found that the Double-T works like cluster-bombing artillery. Paired with optional Tippmann Flatlines, the Double-T can launch a fusillade of paint a very long ways. Even if you could never hit a guy with your normal paintgun, the Heavy Gunner can rip off a giant arc of paint that will splatter all over the enemy. It's amazing what a couple hundred lobbed paintballs can do. It's the perfect solution to hammering guys across an open field.
And, of course, the Double-T is ideal for mowing down bushes. When we have an op force that's concealed behind bushes and grass, we bring up the Heavy Gunner to pound through. With that kind of volume, you always get some paint through. Our Double-Ts have pounded many a dude who was hiding behind some brush.
We wouldn't be doing the Double-T justice if we didn't mention our liberal use of the Double Trouble in our paintball tank. We've mounted one of these bad boys in a rotating mesh turret and it raises massive hell in scenario games. The Razorback and its Double Ts racked up over 2,000 eliminations just during the Summer of 2004.
Technically, the Double Trouble crank works by toggling the triggers of two Tippmann A-5s four times each per turn of the crank. That's right; four cranks blasts out 32 balls. The air supply of both guns is combined in the aluminum rail that holds both guns together under the pistol grips.
You can mount the Double-T in a fixed position, such as on a tripod or strap it to a specially-made vest that totes the beast around in relative comfort. The vest clips onto the rear "D" rings in back of the A-5s. It suspends the guns at chest level - which we've discovered to be perfect for field use.
We've run the Double-T on both CO2 and compressed air and it runs great on either. We have run into a little bit of air-starvation when we getting cranking hard on the thing. We fixed the problem by drilling out the 90 degree fitting on the back of the connecting bar. Also, the stock connecting bar makes the paintball trajectory cross (when you fire it) only about ten yards out. We prefer to have them cross at thirty yards, so we slotted the rear connection points and now our Double-Ts are fully adjustable.
Our Heavy Gunner packs a large compressed air, or a 20 pound CO2 tank to get through a game. During scenario games, we really go big on the air supply. Our specially-made vest holds 1800 rounds of paint and the biggie-sized tank. It weights about 40 pounds loaded, which really isn't too bad to pack around.
So, if you're like Tim the Tool-man Taylor, and you stay up late at night fantasizing about MORE POWER, then the Double-T should definitely be on your wish list.
