The recently introduced provincial budget made the 34-cent issue disappear, and I don’t mean they resolved it by eliminating provincial property taxes in full-service municipalities, as the Federation of PEI Municipalities (and of course, Charlottetown) has continually asked.
No, the problem, by all accounts, is only getting worse for the City, which makes me question the point of all those intergovernmental meetings I attended that were supposed to result — I was lead to believe — in a better deal for the City. Senior City staff are still meeting with their provincial counterparts in an attempt make sense of it all, which I’m told is not an easy task. I will attempt to explain it when I’ve figured it out myself.
Even Stratford is upset. Stratford!
