Every other facet of the economy demands that each fiscal quarter earns more than the last quarter. Why shouldn't we also charge more for the limited resources they buy from us?
That's capitalism, right?
diminishing returns, just like taxation once you cross a threshold revenues actually begin to drop..
Indeed. With the more regressive provincial governments--namely BC and Quebec's--within our country attempting to hinder access to other markets along with foreign interlopers, we do not have has much leverage to raise royalties. Especially with energy companies fleeing the country because Canada and its people are not worth investing in because of their fickle and self-satisfied attitudes.
