This assessment is most rea- sonably calculated on the value of the farm for farming purposes both the working land acreage and the farm buildings. Because of the considerable amount of land and the investment involved an additional business tax above property tax would work an un- due hardship on bonafide farmers. To suggest that the farm business be exempt from taxation would work a hardship on all residents and businessmen throughout the county. From your article on page 1, June 18th issue of “The Liberal", I understand that the Vaughan Council is considering a request made by the Elders’ Mills W.I. to change the Assessment Act for the benefit of farmers. As sug- gested. it is right and reasonable that the farmer as a resident should pay taxes on his house and possibly one acre of land just as any other resident. However. we should not forget that the farmer is a businessman just the same as the neighborhood grocer or ser- vice station operator, and that the farm business is equally liab- le for the support of municipal and educational levies as the store. factory or railway. The assessment act requires that an businesses in Ontario be taxed for educational purposes, commercial premises are assess- ed the same as dwellings and in addition pay a business assess- ment. Where a dwelling is occu- pied by an independent business- man who also uses his home for business purposes such as a doc- tor, accountant, engineer, etc.. an additional tax over and above the usual property tax (which is a charge against the property) will be charged against the business- man personally.
