It comes as a supplement to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation’s Capital Region Residential Property Tax and Utility Charges Survey. The question on the minds of many individuals and families in the real estate market is how communities in Manitoba compare with their neighbors in terms of the cost of residential property taxes and utility charges. This survey attempts to answer this question alone. It does not explore other variables that influence a home-buyer’s decision to relocate outside city limits, such as the crime rate, real estate prices and access to large property lots and monster-sized houses. The property tax survey serves as a useful measurement of the comparative tax burden. The survey is not intended to measure the benefits accrued to homeowners in return for their property taxes. Rather, it registers the price that is paid for a product: local government. It is not a reflection of the quality of the product or value for tax dollars. The survey should neither be used to compare management efficiency among local governments, nor to compare "value for services” offered by individual municipalities. Although property tax differences can be partially attributed to management efficiency, the latter does not pre-determine the former. Other factors affect property tax rates, such as the sources of operating revenue and the extent and cost of municipal services provided. Canadian Taxpayers Federation – Manitoba 2 2003 Manitoba Property Taxes and Utility Charges Survey Outline Where necessary, the survey selected high-density residential communities in the province that share the same utilities. Communities that were inconsistent with the other communities in terms of water and/or sewer services were excluded. The survey is divided into five sections. The first section compares residential property taxes levied across Manitoba for single-detached properties assessed at $100,000 for the years 2000, 2001 and 2002. The property tax survey includes the general municipal tax, the provincial education support levy and the special school levy, but does not include local improvement levies or the Manitoba Education/Property Tax Credit advance. The second section breaks down the year to year fluctuation of property taxes on a $100,000 house from 2000 – 2002. Section three breaks down residential property taxes into three components: the general municipal levy, the provincial education support levy and the special school levy for a $100,000 house in 2002. In cases where a municipality borders on more than one school division, the largest school division was selected for comparison. For example, the special school levy for the City of Winnipeg was based on values derived from Winnipeg School Division Number One, the largest division in the city. The fourth section of the survey compares the cost of average annual utility charges for a singe-family house in the Capital Region in 2002. Utility charges include telephone, power, gas, water and sewer. Finally, section five combines the property taxes and utility charges for a $100,000 single-family house in 2002. Property Tax • General Municipal Levy – The portion of property taxes collected that is set by and paid to the municipality. • Education Support Levy – The portion of property taxes collected that is set by and paid to the Province of Manitoba. • Special School Levy – The portion of property taxes collected that is set by and paid to the School Board. Canadian Taxpayers Federation – Manitoba 3 2003 Manitoba Property Taxes and Utility Charges Survey Telephone Base residential telephone rates range from $23.50 to $25 per month, and include GST and PST. Hydro Power rates are based on the consumption of 750 KWH per month for an average of $46.04 per month. Rates shown include GST and PST and a $6.25 basic monthly charge. The City of Winnipeg tacks on another 2.5% in hydro tax. Natural Gas The natural gas rate is based on the consumption of 90 cubic meters per month for an average of $42.97 per month. Rates shown include GST, 1.7% Provincial Utility Tax, and a $10 basic monthly charge. The City of Winnipeg tacks on another 2.5% natural gas tax. Water and Waste Water and sewer rates are based on consumption of 82 cubic meters, 18,063 gallons, or 2,900 cubic feet per quarter. Rates vary from one community to another.

Property taxes in general are easily the most destructive, regressive and complicated forms of taxation: • They are charged to property owners regardless of income or ability to pay. Therefore, they can be an unreasonable burden on struggling farmers and home owning seniors on fixed-incomes (to cite two examples); • They bear little relationship

  • Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences the University of Manitoba
    Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences The University of Manitoba Progress Review January – December 2004 dean’s message It is with great pleasure that I present to you the 51st Annual Progress Review of the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences at the University of Manitoba. In the following pages, you will learn about the many academic, research and outreach activities undertaken by the Faculty in 2004. Much of what is reported here was initiated under the guidance of Harold Bjarnason, who completed his term as Dean of the Faculty in July 2004. During his time in the Faculty, he had great vision and started the ball rolling on many of the projects in which we are cur- rently engaged. My goal is to build on his accomplishments and the Faculty’s many strengths. We can do this by focusing on multi-disci- plinary research themes, continuing to provide a high quality learning environment and supporting our staff in their valuable outreach and service activities. We are very excited about the Faculty’s changing physical landscape. The Richardson Centre for Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals is Mission Statement quickly taking shape on the Fort Garry campus. We, along with the Faculties of Human Ecology, Pharmacy and Medicine look forward to To provide leadership in the opening of this innovative research centre in Smartpark at the education and research by end of 2005. Construction has also begun on the National Centre for advancing the knowledge Livestock and the Environment located at the Glenlea Research and understanding of sci- Station - Canada’s first facility to integrate the study of animal and ence related to production, crop production systems looking, for example, at long-term nutrient or pathogen flow in the environment.

Southwest Manitoba has traditionally been considered part of the semi-arid Palliser Triangle. Today Wade (l) and Ryan Flannery are among the area farmers Losses are calculated using whose fields are sprouting cattails, not crops. PHOTO: MEGHAN MAST a mail-out survey. This year 63 beekeepers responded, repre- senting just over 50 per cent of the province’s colonies. Apiarists also provide the top three causes they attribute bee mortality to, although Southwestern Manitoba — Lafreniere notes that responses are anecdotal, adding there may be other causes of mortality not yet considered.

Farmsteads reflect more than the nature and health of agricul­ tural activity on individual farms and across geographic regions; they pro­ vide a reliable record ofother aspects ofcultural and economic adjustment and change.
