By any measure, Calgary taxpayers have endured an increasingly painful pinch over the past few years, says a Canadian tax watchdog.
Colin Craig with the Canadian Taxpayers Federation said the power rests with 15 members of council to curb the growing burden on taxpayers by making a few tough decisions of their own.
“Our concern, especially right now, is we’re seeing property taxes continue to go up while so many businesses and families are struggling,” Craig said.
“The fundamental problem is council needs to get its spending under control.”
