Unless I'm mistaken, at the time of implementation in 2006-2007, Ontario, for example, exported a lot. Canada was assessed a penalty of $68 million in charges. Now the charges are being collected based on 2009 exports. Since Quebec exports more than Ontario, there are differences.
You're telling me they are collected and those amounts are subsequently returned to the current provinces of origin, not those of 2007. They are sent to the governments of the provinces. If, for example, Quebec has to pay half the bill, $34,134,000, the Government of Quebec would receive the cheque and would be free to return that money to the businesses or not.
