Tax Exemptions in Montreal and Toronto, 1870 to 1920
|
| Abstract |
The author charts and explains debates over tax exemptions in Montreal and Toronto, from 1870 to 1920. Local taxation was an important part of the revenue source for these two cities, in this important period in Canadian urbanization. Debates over exemption from taxation constitute an appraisal of the way the local government was to marshal resources. The author explains these struggles through an examination of the interplay of class and religion within the political and cultural geographies of Montreal and Toronto. The author uses newspaper accounts to explain the positions of Montreal's English and French, and business and religious communities' attitudes towards tax exemptions.
