Another resident talking taxes
Dear editor,

Just want to put my two cents in about something I heard on Rock 95 today (April 23) about taxes, and it seems that the Town of Innisfil collected in the first three months one million dollars from Georgian Downs and that in the past five years they have collected 23 million. Question what do they do with all the extra money? Is it extra? Does it go to certain peoples pockets? Lets not forget all the tax they collect from the 30 thousand people living here and now they have to raise taxes 11.8% - wow - why don't they try something different and cut taxes? Can't do that - the only things for sure in life are death and taxes so how about lower taxes and let us worry about death? I like to know how many people out there get a 11.8% raise at there jobs this year and next year buy a new car which of course the price went up 3% so you go to your boss and tell him or her "I need to raise my pay by 11.8%" I wonder what they would say? I have a idea leave taxes where they are make it work with what you have just like what us citizens have to do day after day. I also like to remind all us bad people out there with boats, ATV's, sleds, busses, trailers, RV's, Big Rigs, Little rigs, and anyone I forgot to go to the town on May 9 to stand up for are rights.

Thank You

Steven Paron

Editor's note: The municipal tax potion for Innisfil was actually reduced to 9.29%

The money from Georgian Downs gets put infrastructure.
