PROPERTY TAX CALCULATION
How are Ontario property taxes calculated?
The calculation of property taxes involves determining the Current Value Assessment of a property, which is provided by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC). This assessed value is then multiplied by the combined tax rates for both the municipal and education components, based on the specific class of property to which it belongs.
Contact your tax assessment office to see if an adjustment was made to your taxes due to the watershed infringement.
WE NEED CONTROL OF OUR PRIVATE PROPERTIES. GET RID OF THIS WATERSHED AND THE 2 TIER PRICING.
The Tait family had reviewed the failure of the system that skewed their property value without merit. The Taits have taken on this investigation to show purchasers and vendors that this is a serious concern. Just more government control of property.
Control the land, control the food, control the people. A third world country? The Taits examined a two-tier price requirement. We are notifying all landowners and require help from realtors to advise them.
THIS TWO TIER PRICING WILL DISPLAY, HONESTLY, THE POTENTIAL LOSSES TO VENDORS AND PURCHASERS.
The FIRST PRICE is the lower price and is governed by the prices in immediate areas where this hidden WATERSHED ENCUMBRANCE has crept in and is now prevalent.
The SECOND PRICE is the higher price that would only be applied if this fraudulent watershed discrepancy is REMOVED.
We do understand that in a “free market” a property’s value is basically what a purchaser is offering to pay for that property. A purchaser should not be deceived by any hidden encumbrance or surprise. For the Tait’s and others this was a shock. Help get rid of the watershed on private land.
In this case the difference creates a substantial loss and should result in a lawsuit against authorities. The Tait family are seeking over 200K in losses from our representatives. Most class action claims would be well over 100K.
Even realtors have lost money on previous deals. This is a simple loss to calculate, based on individual property values back on the day of any purchase and sale providing the watershed was imposed at that time.
This could be the spawning of a whole new related business on behalf of vendors, purchasers and the original realtor. All involved would have a vested interest if our class suit becomes registered.
John Tait and family have had constructive conversation with realtors and brokers regarding this intrusive watershed illusion on our private properties. Letters have been sent to Doug Ford, Pierre Poliviere, and Tim Hudak. (Hudak retired from OREA Aug1st 2024)
THIS IS A FRAUD!
This watershed intrusion has reduced the value of properties and given the government more control of land owners. We know that realtors were unaware because they operate on percentages and would not reduce a clients property value intentionally below market value. Sales are based on percentages. Why would anyone in business knowingly reduce their profit?
The failure of government officials to disclose these facts has resulted in properties selling for significantly lower amounts, than the unencumbered market value. This has caused minimum losses of $100,000 and much more to those watershed-affected properties. This fact should have been addressed by our representatives through an independent assessment group. What we find is that generally, real estate brokers and agents, deeply value and adhere to the principles outlined in the following impressive mission statements but in this case they too were unaware of this federally imposed creeping control of private property.

REALTORS MISSION:
Our mission is to deliver exceptional real estate services that exceed clients’ expectations. We aim to become leading sales representatives by offering innovative solutions, personalized attention, and the utmost professionalism in all our interactions. Building strong relationships based on honesty, integrity, and transparency with our clients, employees, and partners is our commitment. We believe our success is tied to the success of our clients and communities, and we actively support local initiatives for sustainable growth.
Recently, we found out, by chance, that a federal watershed study program had been implemented in numerous jurisdictions, across Canada and has disrupted the free market flow. Unfortunately, realtors were not officially informed by the authorities. This lack of transparency undermines our dedication and credibility as addressed in our mission statement.
We want to reassure all current, past, and potential clients that this oversight is due to the absence of information and directives from our municipal representatives. We, the undersigned real estate agents, were never formally or officially notified about the potential creeping decline in property value and equity for any subject property. We were not provided with an opportunity to engage in an appeal process, nor any legal action opposing this matter on behalf of clients. This responsibility should be directed toward those having a duty of care to the taxpayers.
We, the undersigned realtors sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by our representatives lack of transparency. We would never knowingly breach our clients trust.
Rest assured, we are committed to upholding our promise to our clients and ensuring a fair and balanced property market. (see our realtor mailout petition)

KICLEI AGENDAS ARE A THING
MUNICIPALITIES HAVE BEEN INFILTRATED BY FEDERAL AGENDAS. THIS APPEARS TO BE THE BEGINNING OF PROPERTY CONTROL ACROSS OUR COUNTRY. AS IS CARBON TAX.
The following is NOT an attack on unsuspecting realtors or lawyers who are just following normal assessment mandates. Realtors fully realize how a restrictive encumbrance will affect the price of a property and ultimately losses to both landowners and realtors. They too were NOT notified by authorities regarding this unconstitutional grab. Tally your losses and sign up.
WE NEED CONTROL OF OUR PRIVATE PROPERTIES. GET RID OF THIS WATERSHED.
Our elected representatives have successfully allowed a hidden two-tier price requirement. This is a serious concern and allows more government control of properties to creep in. Control the land, control the food and they control the people like a third world country.
THIS IS TWO TIER PRICING SHOWS THE LOSSES TO CLIENTS
The FIRST PRICE is the lower price and is governed by the prices in immediate areas where this hidden watershed encumbrance is prevalent.
The SECOND PRICE is the higher price that would only be applied if this fraudulent watershed is removed.
This simple difference creates a substantial loss and may result in a lawsuit against authorities. The Taits are seeking over 200K in losses from our representatives. Most losses are well over 100K. Even realtors have lost money on deals. This is a simple loss to calculate, it’s based on individual property losses.
CREEPING SUPPRESSION
The Tait’s immediate neighbors were not notified in regards to the watershed intrusion. Farm owners were not advised and in fact often totally unaware. Farmers, according to realtors, usually try to maintain their farm within the family circle and do not sell the family business unless they are forced to, or family move out. This watershed encroachment has grown roots and over a few years has suppressed property values, in vast areas. Landowners are left in the dark, until they attempt to move forward, only then do they find out. This is the case with the Tait family.
We met with realtors, and found that the traditional method for assessing private property has always been by researching other like-properties in an area. Normally the best way. This is not a realty failure, only an ingenious method of creeping federal property control. “hegelian dialectic”
SATELLITE IMAGERY
ACCURACY: For an accurate calculation with the DIY method it is best to enlarge the imagery to full page.
For a landowner to acquire the green and brown satellite overlay of the family property he or she must contact the local planning department or their preferred realtor and have them email the imagery to the applicant along with the actual satellite image of property features. This will allow a landowner to highlight areas that are obviously unusable although engineering solutions are always available if they choose to help you. They may refer you, at your expense, elsewhere, OR have your realtor deal with it.
Please email us the municipal representatives names if you have a problem. We will assist you.

NOTE:
The senior planner at Severn did email the green overlay to the Tait family, proudly showing the green damage that they had done. At no time was a URL or public site given to the Tait family. Numerous emails and FOIA requests were issued with no simple access or engineering solutions. Wake up and sign up.

NOTE:
If you are having trouble getting what you need make sure that you obtain all municipal employees names et cetera and then contact your ward councilor. Ask he/she if they were officially informed of this private property overreach and what they did about it on your behalf? Did they fight for you? Did your realtor? Did they know about it? We want to know.
SIGN UP AND INFORM ALL YOUR FRIENDS. AS FRIENDS SHOULD.
See our website for the DIY calculation for your percentage loss of usable property in “realty.”
If you are having trouble getting what you need contact your Ward Councillor. They know, and should know what is going on. They should assist landowners with this Watershed Debacle. Get rid of it or compensate us. Find out if they too were not officially notified.
DIY CALCULATION OF THE PERCENTAGE INFRINGEMENT
1. DIY PERCENTAGE
Insert the satellite image of your property ( a green and brown document) from your planning department, into a transparent acetate folder. Utilize a permanent fine Sharpie marker to outline both the property boundary perimeter and the watershed boundaries on the acetate.
Obvious areas, that would be difficult or too expensive for a landowner ‘s property development or not useful as a valuable feature, you may or may not choose to not subtract that feature. Remember this land is your land. As a private property landowner we doubt that you will intentionally damage the property value, as the authorities have done.
They were hired to help and advise but, instead they refer us to others.
2. DIY PERCENTAGE OF LOST PROPERTY
Insert a sheet of graph paper, THE FINER THE BETTER, into the acetate folder.
LINK BELOW FOR APPROPRIATE GRAPH FORM
Align it also with any features that YOU DETERMINE , ARE NOT USABLE and that NO ENGINEERING METHODS WOULD CORRECT, OTHERWISE
Just proceed and include THOSE INFRINGED and ENCUMBERED AREAS in GREEN.
USE A RULER WHEN POSSIBLE.
The areas in BROWN are either USABLE or BEING USED AS STRUCTURES or DWELLINGS. THIS IS, AFTER ALL. YOUR LAND. wake up-sign up FREE
3. DIY PERCENTAGE OF LOST PROPERTY
DO THIS CAREFULLY AND SLOWLY
Count and NOTE the TOTAL number of squares within the property boundaries.
Both the BROWN and the GREEN zones combined.
NOTE: TREAT PARTIAL SQUARES ACCORDINGLY.
1/2, 1/4, etc. As required, for more accuracy.
4. DIY PERCENTAGE OF LOST PROPERTY
Count the total number of squares within the usable zones (in brown). Subtract this total from the number of squares within the property perimeter boundaries (see step number 3). This will allow you to determine the percentage of your property which is affected by the watershed infringement.
The information can be reviewed by your REALTOR for a more precise assessment of losses. Based on our assessment, with and without this infringement / encumbrance. Losses are inherent with any encumbrance.
COMMON SENSE AND A PRACTICAL REVIEW shows losses well exceeding 100,000 DOLLARS. How much do they owe your family?
THIS HAS BEEN A NON-TRANSPARENT ENCROACHMENT AND SUPPRESSION OF TOTAL AREAS OF MULTIPLE PROPERTIES FOR ABOUT EIGHT YEARS. THIS IS CREEPING CONTROL.
AND WE KNOW
THIS CONTROL MECHANISM IS WELL DOCUMENTED IN QUEBEC.
Please note that “Realtors are not charities,” and they may charge a professional service fee.
THE PERCENTAGE OF ENCUMBRANCE ON A PROPERTY
Example: If there are 400 total squares within your property boundaries, what percentage would a 300-square watershed zone represent?
300 out of 400 squares would account for 75% of the total area zoned unusable.
This situation significantly undermines our property values, and we were not informed about it. WERE YOU?

POTENTIAL EQUITY LOSSES – ARE LOSSES INCURRED DURING PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT.
If the infringement has resulted in property owners and their family members abandoning development plans due to a lack of required transparency from planning authorities, and it has caused significant stress and grief, the question arises, where is the peaceful occupation of our properties?
Builders can advise and guide us on the potential profit/loss resulting from the development, this would take into account the original costs up to today’s prices, along with the accrued interest.
