...bonus is not the citizens' "dividend" promised when their party came to power 22 years ago. That scheme was to be part of a major overhaul of federal monetary policies, and is beyond the power of a provincial government. The payments now planned will help to drain off cash from an oil-enriched treasury that has already cut the province's debt to $90 million, financed large-scale grants to local schools and municipalities, and has built up a $347 million surplus.

Cost of a $10,000 endowment for a man aged 30: about $300 per year for a monthly income of $65 after the age of 65.
