Have Your Say: Equalization Referendum

Share your thoughts on the Equalization Referendum

You may be asked in a referendum this fall if you think the section dealing with Equalization payments should be removed from the Canadian constitution. Let us know what you think.

Do you believe the Equalization system in Canada is fundamentally broken?

Yes No

Is it fair that Quebec’s provincial government has run several surpluses in recent years, but will collect more than $13 billion in Equalization dollars this year and has collected more than $68 billion since 2015?

Yes No

Albertans contributed more than $240 billion to the rest of Canada from 2007-18, but collected zero dollars in Equalization during that same time, despite facing downturns in global oil prices and bad NDP policies. Do you agree it is obvious that the Equalization program isn’t fair for Alberta taxpayers?

Yes No

Do you agree with Premier Jason Kenney’s decision to hold an Equalization referendum?

Yes No

If an Equalization referendum were to be held, how would you vote?

I would vote to remove Equalization from the Canadian Constitution. I would vote to keep Equalization the way it is.
