Urban property taxes in Ottawa are about to soar, in some cases dramatically, as an expiring provincial tax freeze sets the stage for double-digit hikes next year for thousands who live in core neighbourhoods from Westboro to Vanier.
Most suburban and rural city residents, meanwhile, will see their property taxes go down. That deepening financial divide -- urban dwellers already pay more of the total municipal tax bill -- has city politicians and financial bureaucrats saying something needs to be done, and soon, to avoid a crisis fuelled by urban residents' outrage."
