Alberta's Outsized Contribution // CBC Loses HNIC

Did you know Alberta's net contribution to Ottawa effectively saves taxpayers in the rest of Canada about $1,000 a year? Guest host Rob Breakenridge digs into the numbers with Fraser Institute's Tegan Hill, then catches up with Canadian history buff Craig Baird to talk about the end of an era: after nearly 75 years, Hockey Night in Canada is leaving CBC. What does the iconic broadcast mean to Canadians, and what will its departure say about the country we share? THIS EPISODE IS PRESENTED BY RapidEX FINANCIAL.
