(North Huron) As the real estate market bubble pops, Wingham, Blyth then East Wawanosh lead the way due to excessive taxes as a result of zero accountability and fear of an admitted cowardly reeve paul heffer that won’t stand up to law breaking town staff.

NOTE: There are 425 municipalities in Ontario with a lower tax rate than Wingham, crashing property values and wiping out families.
This has resulted in families forced to sell at a loss, as they flee back to the Cities for opportunities and more affordable living.



As the chart shows below, North Huron has the highest tax rate in the area, double that of Perth East, and nearly triple that of Toronto and other Cities.
