The federal Chief Actuary has released their analysis of what Alberta would receive should it exit the CPP.
It's clear and accessible; give it a read: www.osfi-bsif.gc.ca/en/oca/oca-...

Quick update on Alberta' renewable electricity program. 2-way CFDs for (cheap) wind in AB
To-date, the program has netted the govt (yes, govt) $185M. PLUS an add'l $97M from surrendered carbon credits as part of the contracts.
