No, It Couldn't Be St. Albert's Taxes, Could It?

Hi Don:
Just an observation I made yesterday.
Went to Sherwood Park, and the amount of new construction is very noticeable especially when you travel along Baseline Road from highway 16 through to Lakeland Drive.
Both sides of the road have a large number of developments in various stages.
Yet when you read the following regarding St. Albert, it makes you wonder:
"Administration told the committee (Finance and audit committee) that a slowdown in housing starts is hitting the city with a double whammy.
Don't you think that maybe, just maybe the difference is in the TAXES?

SINC SAYS:
Taxes George? Good heavens no. Just ask council and administration. They want to hit us for another 26 percent over the next three years. It couldn’t possibly be the taxes. Or could it? What do readers think?
