Well, to give you a real world example, my parents own a ~$220K house in Winnipeg that would be comperable to a house in Acadia that would go for $400K. 2 years ago they paid $3500 per year.
My house was valued at the last assesment of $370K, and I pay about $1700 per year. Assuming that house in Acadia was assesed at $500K last year, that still puts my parents as paying about 80% more in Winnipeg.
However their small street gets the snow plowed a few times in the winter.
