Letter: Double standards for homeowners vs. wealthy business owners

“Businesses must pay their fair share of commercial taxes to reduce the reliance on residential ratepayers and our bylaw enforcement officers must enforce the bylaws as written for everyone, not focus on harassing homeowners looking to create a little shade in their backyards,” writes Steve McGuinness.
