The Chair Of The School Of Policy At The University Of Calgary Says Premier Brad Wall's Potash Royalty Structure is 'Just Wrong'

"Jack Mintz, chair of the school of policy at the University of Calgary and a fiscal and tax policy specialist, describes the province’s current potash royalty system as “just wrong.”

“My argument is that it is actually a poor rent-collector, probably not collecting enough rents on it. In fact, when you kind of look at the numbers it would suggest that,” said Mintz, a former head of the conservative C.D. Howe Institute think-tank."
