Originally posted by CanadaguyAll residents of Alaska that have lived there for at least a year profited from a similar program. Today there was $845.76 given to every man, woman, and child who have lived in Alaska at least a year. This comes from the Permanent Fund, a mass of money that came from the royalties paid to Alaska from the trans-Alaska oil pipeline. It is now worth about $30 billion and residents get a portion of the money earned by this every year.
$400 for every man woman and child who lives in this great province.

Alaska's program is what inspired ours.
