Canada Property Tax reproduces published residential rates and cites the issuing province or municipality. It does not set tax rates or invent missing bylaws. Note: Statistics Canada CHSP owner/assessment tables are not mill rates and are not used as a national mill-rate series. Method detail: methodology.

Primary sources

• Financial Information Return (FIR) / Schedule 22 (Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing). Municipal tax rates for Ontario cities in the allowlist.
• Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) (MPAC). Ontario assessment-cycle context for interpreting rates vs bills.
• Nova Scotia open data municipal tax rates (Province of Nova Scotia). Published residential tax rates converted to mills.
• Property Valuation Services Corporation (PVSC (Nova Scotia)). Assessment and capped-assessment program context.
• BC Assessment (BC Assessment). British Columbia market-value assessment context; rates from municipal bylaws.
• Saskatchewan Assessment Management Agency (SAMA) (SAMA). Saskatchewan assessment context alongside city rate bylaws.

Municipal bylaws

For provinces without a consolidated open rate table, city pages cite the municipal tax bylaw or budget schedule used at ingest time. Each city page footer names the dataset for that municipality.

Corrections
