NEP II

Thanks to canadacomment for putting me onto today's poll at the Globe and Mail. The Globe appears to be promoting the cause of the Alberta Separatist parties but asking this question:

"Should the federal government introduce a short-term 'windfall tax' that redistributes some of Alberta's oil wealth to provinces in need?"

With a provincial election expected in Alberta in Nov, what is this all about? Is this a trial balloon?

This would not go over well in Wild Rose Country.
