So if "Quebec is on pace to quickly improve its debt situation" and is seeing increased GDP and "Alberta's finances stand out as a point of concern" why is Quebec receiving $11 billion in 2018 and Alberta receiving nothing? The answer is simple, the federal government gets more votes and seats from Quebec than it does from Alberta so if you wanted to stay in power which province would you place more favoritism towards? Same thing is currently happening with Quebec's Bill 62 right now. Trudeau blasted the Conservatives during the election for wanting to make it so you couldn't cover your face during your citizenship process but now Quebec makes it so no one covering their face can receive any public service and Trudeau says nothing. Gotta love keeping those Quebec votes in your pocket even though it make you look incompetent don't you Trudeau?
