The revenues raised are used to pay for a variety of public services including police, schools, fire protection, roads, and sewers. Owners of different classes of property, including residential, commercial and industrial, pay taxes. In principle, both considerations of efficiency and fairness suggest that the taxes paid by individual property owners should reflect the costs that they impose on municipal service providers. This is commonly referred to as the “user pay” principle. Therefore, to the extent that property tax rates differ across property classes, the differences should reflect commensurate differences in the relative costs that those asset classes impose on municipalities. This study compares property tax ratios for major residential and non-residential property classes in five of Canada’s largest metropolitan areas: Ontario’s Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, Quebec’s Greater Montreal, British Columbia’s Lower Mainland, and Alberta’s Calgary and Edmonton regions.

  • Private Property Pesticide By-Laws in Canada
    Private Property Pesticide By-laws In Canada Population Statistics by Municipality The lack of adequate protection from unwanted exposure to lawn pesticides at the federal and provincial level has fueled a growing surge in municipal pesticide restrictions designed to enhance the protection of the environment and public health. The number of municipal by-laws currently in place across Canada has now increased to 117. An additional 10 pesticide by-laws are at the draft stage pending adoption. Municipalities of all sizes have passed various forms of pesticide by-laws. The largest is the City of Toronto with a population of 2.48 million while some are as small as Lac- Saint-Joseph, Québec with a population of 184. There are over 11 million Canadians, or 36.5% of Canada's total population (based on 2001 Census) benefiting from enhanced protection from unwanted exposure to synthetic lawn and garden pesticides. This figure includes the additional province-wide protection provided under Québec’s Pesticide Management Code.
