British Columbia Premier David Eby supports Newfoundland and Labrador's plan to sue Ottawa over the federal equalization program, which transfers money from wealthier provinces to poorer ones. He calls the current formula "completely absurd" and believes British Columbia taxpayers are disadvantaged by it. Premier Eby hopes to announce an official position before the Council of Federation meetings end in Halifax.
