lpoutine,
IslandNotes has just posted a new topic entitled "2026 Municipal Tax Increases Across Region" in forum "Urban Issues".
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Two petitions - one specifically in Sooke BC, the other a Provincial one.
Sooke Council Member Keven Pearson has signed, brave leadership there.
Sooke experienced large increases (2023: 6.99%, 2024: 10.53%, 2025: 15.29% 2026 headed in a similar direction - way up!). Here are the links:
