Nova Scotia’s commercial property tax burden is significant and unfair

The local tax system is not working for Nova Scotia's commercial property owners or small businesses.

CFIB’s new report, Myth vs. Reality: A Small Business Perspective on Local Taxation, found that the property tax burden on Nova Scotia’s small businesses is significant, unfair and a barrier to growth.

Analysis of the 2015-2016 Nova Scotia data on property tax rates reveals that business owners pay up to 4.2 times more than residents on the same value property.
