Federal government:
"Hi provinces! Our winters can be harsh and we have many homeless living on the streets so here we are giving you financial help to house these people so they won't die out in the cold."
Conservative premiers in Ontario, Alberta, and Saskatchewan:
"What? Can't hear you! Besides, it we can't risk taking money from the feds and making them look good. WE MUST OWN THE LIBS! We will NOT concern ourselves with people dying in the snow! "
Conservative Premiers call local police and RCMP:
"Just make sure the bodies don't clutter up the doorways or sidewalks in front of businesses! Move them out of town!"
