March 18, 2014 的Globle and mail报道说,安省政府总债务$2675亿加元。美国加州总债务才$1448亿美元。而加州经济是安省的3倍大。所以相当于安省债务分量是加州的5倍。都知道前几年加州濒临破产。给州政府雇员发工资时打白条,欠着。看来安省也快发不出工资了。
Who's the bigger budget basket case - California or Ontario?

A report being published Tuesday morning by Vancouver-based think tank Fraser Institute compares the debt situation of Ontario and California and concludes Ontario has bigger debt problems "by any measure." Ontario's gross government debt of $267.5-billion at the end of fiscal 2012 was nearly double that of California's $144.8-billion (U.S.). And California's economy is roughly triple the size of Ontario's, which means that Ontario's debt-to-GDP ratio - a key measure of government debt burden - is more than five times that of California (40.9 per cent versus 7.6 per cent). Ontario spends more than 9 per cent of its annual revenue to pay the interest on its debt; California spends just 2.8 per cent.

“We’ve done the math, we found that last year (2013) Ontario subsidized power to people in the United States and Quebec and Manitoba to the tune of over a billion dollars,” the Toronto-Danforth MPP told reporters Monday.“
”While it costs 8.55 cents a kilowatt hour to produce electricity in Ontario, excess power was sold to five neighbouring jurisdictions — Michigan. New York, Minnesota, Manitoba and Quebec — for 2.65 cents/kwh, Tabuns said.”---- 一度电花8.55分生产,只卖2.65分给美国。
