"A new report from the Fraser Institute, a Canadian free-market think tank, looks at income instead of output, and its findings are even worse for Canada. In a ranking of the 50 U.S. states and ten Canadian provinces by median earnings per person, all ten provinces line up at the bottom, occupying spots 51–60. Every U.S. state has higher median earnings per person than Alberta, the richest Canadian province."
I hate to add onto this comment due to the thread this is located in, but this needs to be said. The Fraser Institute in a right wing funded think tank that tries to pass as a bi-partisan think tank. They have been known to add in or subtract statistics into their "studies" in order to make the position they are trying to push seem validated. (ie. One of the biggest is that Canadians pay 50% of their earned income in taxes, was found out that they were calculating in the taxes that corporations pay into their equations)
