In Canada, the federal government makes equalization payments to provincial governments to help address fiscal disparities among Canadian provinces based on estimates of provinces' fiscal capacity—their ability to generate tax revenues. A province that does not receive equalization payments is often referred to as a "have province", while one that does is called a "have not province". In 2022-23, all provinces and territories will receive $87.67 billion in major federal transfers, including $21.92 billion in equalization payments in 5 provinces.
