Taxation in Manitoba, provincial and municipal

Abstract

In the following pages, dealing with Taxation in Manitoba, I have endeavored to present to the mind of the reader, in logical order, the causes of the heavy taxation prevailing in Manitoba at the present time, together with the remedies, which I consider would be most effective in relieving it. I have dealt, also, with the subject of exemptions from taxation, and have made certain recommendations which I consider would greatly aid, both in lessening the burden of taxation and in leading to a more equitable distribution of that burden, if they were put into practical effect. Dominion taxation in Manitoba has not been dealt with here, as I consider its proper treatment would render this thesis altogether too long.
