Walter Fitzgerald, le maire d'une des plus grosses municipalités du Canada, a déclaré que les municipalités devront choisir entre trois possibilités. Premièrement, elles peuvent demander aux provinces de leur rembourser cet argent, mais les provinces ont déjà rejeté cette possibilité.
Walter Fitzgerald, the mayor of one of the largest municipalities in Canada, has said that municipalities will have to do one of three things: First, they can get the provinces to rebate this money, something which the provinces have said they will not do; second, they can increase municipal taxation, which they do not want to do; third, they can cut services to homeowners, which they do not want to do.
