"Gerry & Louise McClelland" <[email protected]> Thutsda}', Novembel 3~ 2016 2:12 PM <afurey~oom> My Stoxy

PAGE 02/16 .l:"age 1 or~

In October 2005, I purchased a property at 3973 2nd Line Rd.t North.Lancaster, qntario~ My so~ lived at the property. I never lived at~ property; but· it was tegi~ered in my name. In March 201St my son discovered· a Notice on the door stating'that.the TownShip was f()feclosin~ on the property and that it would. be sold fur ta~es. In a .panic; he ·informed them of my phone# in Ottawa; an<f he disappeared. on March 15th, I received a ~ail from .the Treasurer~ M·r. Samson, informing me. that, since the property taxes were 10 years in arrears, the Township.was foreclosing.

. . .

. My son was supposed to be paying the taxes and the ,.;,ortgage .payment. I had never received a Tax bill or overdue noti~e; so~ I assumed everything was OK. Why did the Township wait 10 years before

contacting rne ... the Trea5urer, Mr. Samson,daims they dkJn't have my address or: phone # ... Really?! The tax bills were being s.ent in my tiame .. to th~ .2rid Line Rd. address, wm;re .l·did n(;)t live, to a mail box that no one ·didntt use. If these notiCes were r~gistered, one :would assume they woutd have been returned.

I went to the Township of'Glengarry office at 6 Oak.St., Lancaster, Ont. with a sank D~ft .in the amount of $15,000.00. Mr: Samson~ refu5ed to acc:ept the payment ... he demand&d ·pay~ent in full or nothi~g .

. I hfred a taw'(er in Ale:>ta~driat Ont .. and, for a· fe~ of$1985.00, all .he did for me wa~ get rvk Samson, the Treasurer, to allow rne six.(6} month.s to sell property provided it :~s list~ \Nith a Realtor. I signed

a listing with an agent by the name of "Bill Stlields'~ · wlth ~oyal LePage Realty in Ale.><andria. Mr. Shields immediately· handed the listing over to his assiStant, a. Mr. M,cCunne '(we never heard from Mr. Shields agail')). It appearecJ thatvery little effort was being pUt into selling the prop.erty •.. there was no com~unication from him re shQwings ... had to bug him to get signs inst~lled arid featUre· sheets in the house. Then we discovered that Mr. ·McCunne had flecho the R.L branch ·in CorriViau to work With Mr. .. . - .

Bissonette who now had .our listing. Tue .six ·~nths to sell'wasfaSt: .runnir1g out.

I contacted the Ombudsman and the La~ SOciety of Upper ~ni!da. I was referred to Mr. Ken Gibson a lawyer iri Ottawa. I m~t ~Ith him a:nd in his opinion I had a case.· As ·per his research, according to law, the Townshi.P had an"obliSation to i:nake at'\ effort to 'contact ~e or my .spo.u$e.within three yea~; if unable to do so, they must theo proceed to for.edose an.cl no furt~r interest .or penalties should be charged. (He gave me a copy of the Act.} He sent a letter to that'effect to.Mr. Samson at the Township offi~e. Mr. Samson's response was, to the effectthat, we din't hav~ time to take it to Court. Unfortunately, I should h~ve talked to Mr: Gib~n sooner; b'ut was trying ~o a.void any further output of money.

The six rno.nths the Townsh.ip had allowed me was Just about. up and the property had not sold. I had to pay the full amount which tOtalled $28,427 ,00 including iriterest and penalt.ies for the ten year

period . (I refused to letthe·m take the property.) !feel n: ·was shameful the ~ay I w~s treated by Mr. Samson and the Township; lt.See:n1ed that the Treasurer .was ~n a ~wer trip .. ~he refused to negotiate when I was willing to make part,.al.payment .•. he sho~ed no compassion whciits0ever.

Dear :IA~V·

Thursday, August 24, 2017

The Sir John Johnson Manor House and Glengarry Archives requests permanent occupancy of

the room and vault in Celtic music hall of fame, space of which we are currently using to

temporarily host the Glengarry Archives while the Manor House is being renovated.

The intent would be to use the locked vault for safekeeping of some Archival items for our

current and our newest features- the Living Archives. We require a safe place to store

documents whi le we prepare t hem for scanning and such for this new Archival feature.

We are currently using the space to house several Archival items alongside other organizations.

One example being Quilt of Belonging, whom we have been getting along with very well when it

comes to sharing the vault space.

I am prepared to attend the next council meeting to discuss this proposal and our former letter

concerning the operational budget we requested.

Gleng=rry Living Archives

""'-lw!Mngarci11es.weetxycorn

The Living Archives exist alongside and within the Glengarry Archives of Williamstown. It is a

new feature to the Archives that simply improves and expands what we currently hold, and aH

living Archives documents exist digitally and not physically among our collection. There is only

one computer database with these shared and scanned documents, a computer of which

visitors and researchers can have access to while doing genealogy research .

Documents among the Living Arch ives are to be brought in from community members who

have collections of old, local documents and pictures. Many of these documents are quite aged,

fragile and sentimental to their owners, and for obvious reasons people are not willing to part

with them long term. With the living archives these generous individuals would only have to

part with these items for a short period of time while the item would be scanned or

photographed for our Living Archives collection.

This short term arrangement is where our request for the use of the room and vault space in

the Celtic Music Hall of Fame comes in. These aged documents would need a place to be stored

for safekeeping while they are being prepared to be digitally added to our Archives. While the

Manor House has plenty of space, it does not have a fire proof and locked vault quite like that

of the one in the Hall of Fame. This space would be the perfect size and function to keep the

individual documents safe from other people or potential accidents.

The Sir John Johnson Manor House Committee has been using the requested space during the

spring and summer months and it has been working for us very well. The room is holding the

archives and office while our facility is under renovations and the vault has been holding onto

some of our older and more significant artifacts. The vault has been shared with the Quilt of

Belonging and we have a very cooperative relationship with them and it has been a very fair

and organized agreement. We wish as a committee to continue using the room and vault as we

are currently, that way we can hast this newest feature more efficiently and safely.

STAFF REPORT S. R. No. 95-17 PREPARED BY:

L. McDonald, GM Corporate Services/Treasurer J. Haley, GM Community Services

PREPARED FOR:

Council of South Glengarry

COUNCIL DATE:

September 18, 2017

SUBJECT:

Loan Request – St. Lawrence Valley Agricultural Society

BACKGROUND:

1) On August 21, 2017 the St. Lawrence Valley Agricultural Society (SLVAS) requested a loan of $100,000 from the Township. They proposed that the loan would be paid in yearly installments over 10 years. The purpose is to purchase 4.8 acres of adjacent land bordering the eastern property line.

2) For the past three years the SLVAS have been able to contribute surplus money

to their ‘restricted funds’. This money is set aside for several purposes including;

“All’s Fair” (anticipated book chronicling the Williamstown Fair from 1977 to sometime in the future)

General Operating Fund (to fund special projects)

Rainy Day Fund (offset inclement weather)

Capital Project Fund (fund new buildings and other capital projects) o This money could potentially be applied to the purchase of the land

Memorial Fund (commemorative items)

3) The SLVAS is not willing to use their ‘restricted funds’ as collateral and therefore financial institutions aren’t interested in offering them a loan. The Township has the ability to be flexible with its terms to suit unique needs, should it be willing.

4) Research into rates on borrowing for a non-collateral loan was an AMEX

Essential Card at 8.99% per year. With collateral (i.e. a mortgage type loan) 4.39% on a 10 year fixed term at Tangerine could be secured. Note: AMEX and Tangerine information, was found at ratesupermarket.ca and were the lowest financial institution options.

5) The SLVAS is, financially speaking, maintaining their property to a very high standard and a cursory walk through the property verifies this. This indicates that their surplus contributions aren’t at the cost of neglected maintenance.

6) Annual profits from the Williamstown Fair are retained by the SLVAS, although there are secondary beneficiaries –local businesses, Fair vendors, and


of 96

2|6

community groups who raise funds at the Fair: Char-Lan Minor Hockey, South Glengarry Fire Department, Char-Lan Figuring Skating, to name a few.

7) Without collateral, there is concern on how the Township would be able to issue penalties and fees should poor weather render the planned payment schedule unattainable.

8) Reviewing other Townships and their Loan Programs:

SD&G Dundas Stormont Glengarry

North South North South North South

Loans No No * No N/A No No No

CIP ^ No Yes No N/A Yes Yes No

* No, the Township of North Dundas created a mortgage receivable where they purchased land, severed a portion and then owned the land until payment was made in full.

^ CIP = Community Improvement Plan loans are given to a Council approved priority area (re: Alexandria’s Downtown) and are paid off over 5 years.

9) As you can see from the above chart no other Township in SD&G currently

provides the type of loans the SLVAS is requesting from the Township.

10) During the SLVAS’s presentation to Council an exact final use for the property was yet to be established. The possibility for a parking lot exists.

11) The Fairground’s property is currently tax exempt and does not generate income

for the Township. Therefore the Township would be forgoing $4,000 to $5,000 per year in taxation income (if the property were built on) and $500-$800 if left vacant.

ANALYSIS:

12) There is no doubt that the SLVAS is beneficial to our community and the Williamstown Fair is the largest event in South Glengarry.

13) During discussions on tax arrears a common theme has been that the Township

is not a bank. Although the SLVAS request is somewhat different in nature, the request would make the Township a lender.

14) The property in which the SLVAS wishes to acquire is currently not zoned for “fair

type” uses. Approximately 5 building lots were created by consent several years ago; the subject property is one of these building lots. The subject property is


of 96

3|6

zoned Residential One (R1) which permits a single detached dwelling; therefore, if this property was acquired by the SLVAS a site specific zoning amendment must be applied for and approved. It is unknown at this time if administration can support a zoning amendment application to rezone the subject property from Residential One (R1) to Institutional (IN). A full review of the application, planning rationale and consideration of all public comments must occur prior to a recommendation being made to Council.

15) It is highly recommended that a site specific zoning amendment be applied for and the process be completed prior to Council making a decision on whether the loan should be granted as there is no guarantee that the zoning amendment will be approved. Also, all Planning Act processes must be transparent and consider public input. If Council chooses to loan money to the SLVAS this may imply that Council is willing to approve the zoning amendment application if applied for.

16) Despite the “SLVAS’s claim that its primary purpose to be the custodians of lands and infrastructure that benefit the public good – hence worthy of support from the public purse.” the Township would have no recourse should they default on the loan and thus there is risk to the tax payer.

17) In all considered options and where applicable the costs of the sale (HST, land

transfer, survey, solicitor, alterations to the land, etc.) would be in addition to the loan and made payable upfront.

18) It is recommended that if Council chooses Option 1 or 2 that this decision be conditional on the zoning amendment process being complete (this is reflected in the resolution). Once that process is complete Council then directs staff to act on one the following three options:

Option 1 – Offer the loan in total at $100,000 and charge 8.99% (due to no collateral). The payment schedule would be as such:


of 96

4|6

This option would provide the Township with $55,750 in interest revenue over the next 10 years. Beyond that there would be no additional revenue. Option 2 – The Township purchases the property and create a mortgage receivable where it would own the property until the payment is complete and charge 4.39% (due to having collateral) The payment schedule would be as such:

This option would provide the Township with $25,570 in interest revenue over the next 10 years. Beyond that there would be no additional revenue. Option 3 – Deny the request This option would provide the Township with $7,000 to $50,000 in taxation over the next 10 years. In every subsequent year it would, very conservatively, generate $700 to $5,000 per year.


of 96

* In all events under Option 3, we are assuming that the MPAC assessment and tax rate would remain constant. This is an ultra-conservative approach to lost taxation revenues.

ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLAN:

INFORMATION REPORT

REPORT TO: Council of the Township of South

Glengarry

MEETING DATE: September 18, 2017

SUBJECT: August - Statement of Revenues and

Expenses

PREPARED BY: L. McDonald, GM Corporate Services

Good evening Council: This chart represents the entirety of our expenditures, including County and Schoolboards to August 31, 2017.

August - Statement of Revenues and Expenses

of 96

For only Township spending:

Much like the May report please note that little major infrastructure spending has occurred up to this point and historically expenditures pick up in August, September, October, November:

In 2015 September to November saw spending of $ 1.2 million to $ 2.2 million per month

In 2016 August to November saw spending of $ 1.7 million to $ 2.9 million per month


of 96

Our spending in August was low in relation to 2016 but higher than 2015:

That concludes the macro review, please find attached the Statement of Revenues and Expenses for August and just below some items of note:

Page 1 - Taxation revenue is up, per expectation $ 488,364 (Township), $ 498,843 (Counties), and down $ 8,726 (Schools)

Page 1 - Although other charges appears significantly higher it includes Green Valley Sewers and Kennedy Redwood Water revenues – the actual budget to actual difference is $ 3,700 not $ 122,703.

Note - A deficit will be in administration because of write-offs due to tax sales

Page 1 – Glen Walter Sewer revenues are done due to decreased hook-ups compared to last year

Page 1 – Tile Drain loans are lower but they are simply an in/out


of 96

Grants are lower on an o/s Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund transfer – it is expected

Page 4 – Administration will be lower once $ 90,000 transferred from last year’s budget for consultants

Page 4 – Building Department is higher, this reflects an additional staff member

Page 4 – The Fire Department is higher if you remove the truck replacement in 2016 but was expected and budgeted (re: SCBA). Salaries, as reported by the Fire Chief will have some stations slightly higher and others slightly lower (ebbs and flow of fire calls)

Page 5 – Street light expenditure is yet to happen, I will be submitting a staff report in the mid-range future to request we do not borrow from reserves but allow the street light system go into deficit to track the payback schedule more simply on the street light conversion

Page 5 – Road and yard will be trending much higher than budget but is expected per Salt Dome and Council resolution

Page 5 – Mowing is currently over budget with the grass cutting season mostly over

Page 6 – The large capital projects have not been paid yet

Page 7 – Note the water budgets will be populated in October The following items will be on every report and will change annually but will remain for reference purposes. To give a perspective on residential tax rates, please see below our Township tax rate (in blue) and the overall tax rate (in grey). You’ll note that, less this year, the overall tax rate has been declining and this was due to County and Education rates.

Year Upper Tier (County) Education (School Boards)

2013 0.634800% 0.212000%

2017 0.593300% 0.179000%

Then why do tax payments (i.e. what the citizens feel in their pocket book) continue to rise?

MPAC’s Assessment continue to increase as they attempt to value homes at market rate. Residential MPAC assessment values from 2013 to 2017 are provided on the chart below:

Previously mentioned items (May 15, 2017):

Transfers to and from Reserves are not included in the numbers, these would include: o 240K for street lights, 150K for SCBAs, among others o In thinking about Street lights, it might be best not to borrow from general reserves and just let the system go into deficit

until the LED savings recover the cost

Revenue appears to be down and some of that is due to no insurance claims (~ 320K)

Sewer and Water Revenue are down compared to expectations but that is due to the return of overbilling on the 5 double metered accounts (2017-05-01 – Info Report - $55K)

Smithfield Hall continues to cost more than anticipated

Most of the Save Char-Lan funds have now been spent (~ 8K)

RRCA has reimbursed us the over funds and we’ve returned them per Council request

Fire Departments situation looks worse than it is because: o 60K per department for SCBA but 300K in general fire for the purchase o Otherwise, Mr. Robertson is carefully reviewing fire salaries periodically throughout the year

Loose top grading is 50% spent for the year

Snowplowing and Sand is at 496K, the budget is 565K – looks like it will be over budget

Ice blading is over budget at this point

1.095 1.158 1.229 1.297 1.328

2013 2014 2015 2016 2017

Residential Assessment ($ billion)


of 96

Sidewalk Snow Removal is over budget

Some of our smaller equipment purchases have come 2-5K over budget

Consider – Martintown sidewalks – levels of service, most hamlets have 1 sidewalk

Yard/Leaf Recycling costs $12,000 per occurrence (we’ve done Spring)

Re: AIRPORT PRIVATIZATION

CNLA Conseil national des llgnes aeriennes du Canada

I'm writing to bring to your attention an issue that potentially affects the health

and prosperity of all of Canada's cities and communities: airport privatization.

As you may know, the federal government is currently considering the for-profit

privatization of Canada's airports.

Other countries that have privatized airports have found that it often leads to

higher fees and reduced services for travellers and airlines. This can damage

tourism , business travel , and the local economy. Most of all, it makes it more

difficult and expensive to maintain essential connections with the rest of the

country and the world .

We hope that, with your support and that of your council , we can mobilize

National Airlines Council of Canada

of 96

municipal and community leaders across Canada to oppose this plan.

To be clear, our current airport governance model is not without problems, and

these must be addressed to make our passenger aviation system more

competitive and improve the traveller experience. But as long as for-profit

airport privatization remains on the table, it will delay effective action needed to

solve these problems.

A number of municipal councils across the country have already adopted

resolutions opposing for-profit airport privatization , among them Montreal ,

Toronto, Vancouver and the Capital Regional District of Victoria .

We urge you and your council to join them in adopting a resolution opposing

the for-profit privatization of airports and call ing on the federal government to

focus on modernizing the current system to lower costs for travelers and

enhance the competitiveness of Canada's air transport industry.

I have attached for your information a template resolution that your council may

want to adapt, a template letter to your local Member of Parliament, as well as

a backgrounder on airport privatization and one on Canada's airline industry.

We believe that successfully stopping this misguided initiative will require a

groundswell of opposition. We hope that you will join us in urging the

Government of Canada to abandon th is plan and focus on the real issues that

damage the competitiveness of passenger air transportation in Canada.

If you have any questions, or would like to discuss this further, please do not

hesitate to contact me directly at: [email protected] .

Yours truly,

Massimo Bergamini

Template Resolution on Airport Privatization

Whereas in a country as vast and sparsely populated as Canada, safe and efficient air transportation is

essential to connecting families and communities and to continued economic prosperity;

Whereas Canada's airports are vital assets that contribute to the quality of life and economic growth in

the cities, communities and regions they serve;

Whereas media reports indicate that the Government of Canada is actively considering selling Canada's

airports to for-profit entities to achieve a one-time financial windfall;

Whereas the international experience in airport privatization has often resulted in higher fees and

reduced services for travellers and airlines as a result of efforts to maximize return on investment;

Whereas such outcomes would negatively affect communities of all sizes across Canada by making air travel more expensive and reducing service;

Whereas the last decade has seen a massive increase in the number of Canadians using air travel to

connect with loved ones, enjoy well deserved vacations and explore the country, or help create jobs;

Whereas any increase in fees on air travel resulting from the privatization of airports would constitute an unfair tax on Canada's middle class;

Whereas divestiture of airports to local not-for-profit authorities in 1994, led to massive user-financed investments in airport infrastructure which have given Canada an enviable network of world class airports;

Whereas the physical infrastructure of airports has been modernized, the governance system under which they operate has not kept up with the times and is now in urgent need of repair;

Whereas that situation would only be exacerbated in a privatized for-profit system;

Be it resolved that the municipality of Anytown calls on the Government of Canada to renounce its push for the for-profit privatization of Canada's airports and clear the way for needed improvements to the current airport governance and financing system; and

Be it further resolved that the municipality of Anytown urge the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) bring this matter forward for emergency debate at the next meeting of its National Board of Directors.

Template letter to Member of Parliament

Dear _____ _

Re : NO AIRPORT PRIVATIZATION

I am writing to express our concern about the federal government's continued pursuit of the for-profit privatization of Canada's airports.

Airports and the airlines that serve them and their commun ities are essential elements of the social and economic infrastructure of our community and region, as they are across the country. Air transportation provides a vital link that connects families and communities and promotes economic growth. It is not a luxury to be treated as a cash cow by governments.

Keeping this plan in play delays much-needed effective action on other issues, such as the burden federal rents and fees place on airlines and air travellers. These are what stand in the way of a more competitive and economical air transportation system for Canada .

We urge you to raise this issue in the House and in your caucus to make it clear to the Government of Canada that our community opposes for-profit airport privatization . The attached motion, recently passed by our council, calls on the federal government to abandon its consideration of for-profit airport privatization and clear the way for the modernization of airport governance.

We will work with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) to alert other municipal governments to the damage that for-profit airport privatization can do to their commun ities, regions and local economies.

We hope that we can count on your support on this issue. Canadian municipalities have a big stake in the success of their airports and of Canada's airlines. There are many things the federal government can do to make our air transportation system more competitive, but selling off these valuable public assets for a quick cash infusion isn't one of them.

Yours truly,

AIRPORT FOR-PROFIT PRIVATIZATION: A CHECKERED TRACK RECORD Airport privatization is not a new idea. Public-private partnerships, and private, for-profit

ownership have been introduced for the construction, financing, management and operation of

many airports around the world. However, the overall track record of airport for-profit

privatization is checkered at best. There are justified grounds for caution, even skepticism,

before launching such an initiative in Canada .

Experience shows dangers

A major fault-line is that for-profit airports shift their focus away from service to communities

and travelers, to concentrate instead on maximizing profits, cutting costs and delivering

earnings to shareholders. Global experience has shown this often has negative consequences,

such as higher prices and reduced service levels.

Underinvesting in infrastructure and services

Some private entities taking over airports have failed to invest sufficiently in maintaining and

upgrading airport infrastructure. In Sydney, Australia, for example, the country's competition

watchdog found that the privatized airport increased profits by running down the quality of its

services, and showed low responsiveness when public concerns were raised .

Overinvesting in the wrong areas

Other privatization experience shows over-investment or "gold-plating" investments in areas

that prove costly or unnecessary. In Mumbai, India, the privatized airport undertook

construction of a second terminal, for which cost over-runs were passed on to users, without

previous consultation .

Dual or hybrid revenue streams that undermine some airport services

Some profit-driven airports have sought to maximize revenues and cut costs by separating out

their revenues into different streams, known as "dual or hybrid till" systems. These allow them

to identify and cut costs and services in activities that produce lower revenues, such as

aeronautical services, while building up those, such as commercial airport concessions, that

produce more.

Australian airports now collect far more aeronautical revenue per passenger than a decade ago:

Brisbane Airport collects 66 percent more in real terms since 2006-07; Perth, 43 percent; and

Melbourne, 31 per cent. Sydney's is up just 16 percent, but its revenue-per-passenger is the

country's highest at $17.27 .

Price increases by these airports over the decade have resulted in an additional $1.6 billion

assessed to airlines and travellers. In cases such as these, where revenue-per-passenger rises

markedly, travelers wind up paying higher prices for flight tickets, parking, airport hotel bills,

and pre-flight meals, among others.

Higher borrowing costs

Analysis shows that lenders are likely to price the financial risk of for-profit airports at higher

levels than that of public ones, resulting in interest rate hikes for them . Private ownership of

airports means that some cash flows will be diverted from airport operations and reinvestment,

to instead pay dividends to shareholders and, possibly, income tax. These pressures, as well as

regulations imposed on private owners, results in their showing a weaker credit profile than do

public airports which are unconstrained by the need to deliver earnings.

The bottom line: risky and not needed in Canada Governments have most often sought a private-sector role in running airports where the state

lacks either financial resources or the required technical or management expertise to run

airports. This is not the case in Canada, where following divestiture to not-for-profit local

airport authorities in 1994, massive user-funded investments have resulted in airport

infrastructure that has been ranked among the best in the world.

Our airport governance model, however, does need updating. This should include third-party

regulatory oversight of airport spending and fees, and a reduction or elimination of the rents

airports pay to the federal government, which takes millions of dollars out of the air

transportation system with no benefit to passengers or the system. Keeping for-profit

privatization on the table will delay these need changes.

Airlines that lift Canada's economy burdened by taxes and fees A powerful economic engine and job creator, Canada's air transportation sector faces increasingly stiff headwinds in the form of security surcharges, fuel taxes, and airport rent. Air travel is not a luxury or a privilege. If government truly wants to make air travel more affordable, efficient and competitive, it can stop adding costs and siphoning money out of the system.

Canada's air transportation sector employs some 141,000 Canadians and contributes about $35 billion to our country's GDP. Our four major airlines-Air Canada, WestJet, Air Transat and Jazz-fly more than 71 million passengers a year and employ more than 50,000 people.

These member airlines of the National Airlines Council of Canada (NACC) purchase goods and services in Canada worth $18 billion, creating another 268,000 jobs . They are a vital connector and driver for our tourism industry, which generates more than $65 billion a year. Airlines also move imports and exports worth more than $110 billion, making them essential players in our trade-dependent economy.

But this economic engine is laboring under the growing burden of taxation and fees . As recommended in the review of the Canadian Transportation Act, fixing air transportation's broken cost structure-including distortions caused by airport rent and related charges, security surcharges and fuel taxes-is the best way to reduce costs for travellers and improve the industry's international competitiveness.

Canada was ranked 124th out of 141 countries when it came to ticket taxes and airport charges in the World Economic Forum's 2015 Tourism Competitiveness Report. Statistics Canada reports that Canadian airfares are at their lowest level in six years, but taxes and fees continue to rise without being reinvested in the air transportation system.

Just in airport rent, the federal government has taken more than $5 billion out of the air transportation sector since 1994. It's expected to collect an additional $12 billion in the next 40 years. These charges contribute nothing to the safety and efficiency of the air transportation system. Canadian airlines also pay jet-fuel excise taxes that are more than triple those in the United States. These revenues are not re-invested in air transportation but are rolled into the federal government's general revenue.

Air travel is not a luxury and shouldn't be taxed as one . Air travel in Canada has increased by more than 38 percent since 2006. In a country as vast and sparsely populated as ours, this should come as no surprise. What is surprising is that governments continue to view air transportation as source of revenue instead of an economic engine and an essential link connecting people and communities.

Canadian airlines have managed to bring base fares to their lowest level in six years. Adjusted for inflation, domestic base fares dropped almost 20 percent between 2008 and 2015. By contrast, airport fees, government taxes and third -party charges are at historic highs.

It's time our governments stopped treating air transportation as a cash cow and started viewing it as the essential economic driver it is.
