What is surprising is PEI, NB, Man, NE, Qc, NFL and Sask all received money from the perequation(equalization?). Per capita Manitoba received more than Quebec in perequation.

There is two provinces which do not beneficiary from perequation (equalization?): BC and Ab. Ontario was in the neutral bracket.

Where I can see an argument in favor of equalization is that the increasing demand for energy which lead to an higher dollars, are badly affecting eastern can and center can manufacturing industry.
