Massive property tax is typical for the USA. This is how states make their money. States have much more responsibility for, um, stuff than provinces do, and they don't have things like transfer agreements.
Hell, I remember when I was in Pittsburgh, and the tour guide said that she pays
only 11K in property tax a year on her house.
