In Gord we trust. Gord, we miss you terribly. Business owner, 100% self made, 100% independent, 100% Canadian as such we protect & defend, never instigate.
@CKWS_Hutch @KingstonPolice@CKWS_TV#ckws After a huge increase at a time when most of us cannot afford it, they want more. Maybe they could sell their armored personnel carrier. Thanks City of Kingston for putting small business last. No common sense left.
@963bigfm We just got stuck with a huge increase and still they want more? Maybe they could sell their APC armored personal carrier. We are getting hosed, say bye bye to small business no one can afford this place any more. They received a huge budget increase.
@ChamberYGK#cityofkingston Kingston business is dying. Taxes are killing us and council continues to spend like drunkin sailors. Want to do something tell the City they need to cut property tax by 75% for business immediately.
@BridgetYGK@downtownktown To bad you hiked taxes on everyone in the city. Time to vote you out. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves as a council, but you probably think your doing a great job. Its easy to spend other peoples money, isn't it?
#mydowntownktown City of Kingston, stop taxing these merchants to death. Its not right the amount you are taxing business, the ones that take the risk, the ones that have staff. How can they compete when you are hosing them. City of Kingston wake up to the reality of things.
@CKWS_Hutch @downtownktown@CKWS_TV#downtownktown What downtown business's need are a reduction in property tax, nothing else will help, stop spending their money on ridiculous barriers and nonsense. Disband the DBI or whatever its called, give the merchants a break, Amazon has kicked the crap out of them.
#cityofKingston With the latest tax increase and no regard for the business's paying the bill, Kingston is becoming a waste land of small business. No one in their right mind would locate their business here. Thanks for sticking it to us! Just awesome.
@AwesomeKingston Lol, only Chappelle and 1 other councilor understand what we face, the others shun them as they voted against increases. It will drive out everyone if it carries on, just so you know what's up in the community. Sad they show no restraint in our current times. Have a great day.
#AwesomeKingston@AwesomeKingston What we as small business's need is a reduction in property tax immediately, were getting hosed and we know it. Plan reductions for us or lose us forever. With property taxes at current rates, Kingston sucks, not so awesome for us paying the bill
@ChamberYGK#chamberYGK#CityofKingston What small business in Kingston needs is a reduction in property tax, we are getting hosed and as small business owners we know it. Tell the city to start planning reductions or you will lose us forever.
@963bigfm Ange what we as small business's need is a property tax break, the city has to stop spending our money as if its theirs, they are putting a lot of us out of business. Property tax is out of control here.
#ygk#cityofkingston Destroying families and business's one increase at a time and doing a great job at. Limited possibilities, less choices, the future look's bleak. Thanks to council for making this city a waste land for business.

#ygk Warning to any business's thinking about Kingston, don't. They are spending our money and raising taxes like never before. Wrecking the local business community without of control property taxes, avoid this place. Incompetency rules here, honest people cannot survive here.
@J_mclaren_ #J_mclaren_#ygk#DowntownKtown Jeff Mclaren You have let us all down and that will not be forgotten. You have turned on us, the very people that pay the bills. Shame on you. Time to vote you out. Thanks for turning your back on us.
@Chapelle4K@cityofkingston#ygk#cityofkingston Mr Chapelle you're the best. Thanks for fighting for us. The ones that actually pay the bills. Its nice to know that someone is listening and voicing our concerns.
@Chapelle4K Hi Mr Chappelle If you were a business owner, with property in Kingston, what would you expect a reasonable increase to your taxes of $7000 a year would be?
@Chapelle4K#cityofkingston This city is a sad state of affairs. Other councilors wake up, who would open a business here? Business's need a 50% reduction in property tax and limits on increases. Layoffs and cutbacks need to happen @ the city now. Taxes are out of control.
