When we were talking about equalization and the awareness of equalization, the awareness of federal transfers, it seems to me—and it's been a while since I've looked at this—in 1868 or 1869 Nova Scotians were complaining that their politicians had sold them down the river for 75¢ a head.
Quand il était question de péréquation et de la connaissance du régime de péréquation, de la sensibilisation aux transferts fédéraux, il me semble—il y a longtemps que je n'ai pas examiné cette question—qu'en 1868 ou 1869, les Néo-Écossais se plaignaient que leur élite politique avait vendu la province 75c. par habitant.
