Taxpayer protections urged to curb rising Manitoba taxes
The Manitoba Taxpayers Association urges amendments to Bill 54 to extend petition rights to property, business and amusement taxes as well as debt, enabling taxpayers liable to pay to halt new levies and borrowing. The group credits Minister Len Derkach for drafting protections, arguing petitions by 35 percent of liable taxpayers could stop a levy and hold councils accountable at little cost.
