But they want to keep property taxes so low . A $ 500 , 000 house in the 905 pays almost double the property tax that a $ 500 , 000 house in Toronto pays , he noted . This old canard again . Toronto is far more dense than any city in the 905 , hence why its taxes are lower . Another way of looking at it is that a $ 500 , 000 house in Toronto is MUCH smaller than a $ 500 , 000 house in Oshawa or Brampton . No wonder it ' s taxed at a lower rate ! I think the reason that the 905 politicians are so upset is because their constituents will blame them for no longer getting a literal free ride when it comes to driving on Toronto ' s highways . <| sep |> I ' m thankful that Sid slid . <| sep |> She wants to sue but he doesn ' t .
