Louis Riel: Draft Budget

Pembina Trails Dept: And when St. James-Assiniboia trustees finally reveal their draft budget on Feb. 27, it may very well be the entire city in which education property taxes are increasing, according to Winnipeg Free Press. Louis Riel is looking at 3.7 per cent, Pembina Trails 3.4, Seine River 3.7, and Seven Oaks 4.76 and school property taxes are going up in six of Winnipeg's seven divisions. Draft budgets call for tax increases ranging from 2.5 per cent in River East Transcona to 6.8 per cent in Winnipeg. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
