Calgary Herald- Editorial: True state of Alberta’s finances remains hard to discern

http://www.calgaryherald.com/opinion/editorials/Editorial+True+state+Alberta+finances+remains+hard/9565399/story.html

Let’s see if the same numbers on the math side line up with the stars?

Alberta is awash in Oil Royalties of all kinds,  right?   Okay okay,  taxes if you will.

Revenue gushing in black gold.

Can someone explain how the richest province in CANADA and perhaps North America other than Texas can make a financial balance sheet end up in black?

Granted,  cities need help.   But ditto for every other province with much less revenues and no oil.

And it’s not like every landowner needs help here.   They too are also awash in oil and mineral rights.

Private health care isn’t funded by the system,  right?

So,  if we’re in the red on the bottom line…  The money is going for all the jobless,  poverty stricken and homeless person and social causes and shelters?

Nope,  way off…  Okay enlighten me then!
