They can institute property taxes, not sales taxes. Not without the province's say so.
Just the way it is.

Isn't that what a ticket surcharge would be considered? Wouldn't that be considered a use tax?

Can't force a use tax onto all the other businesses in the city or an area. The arena/operator can charge whatever they want to use the building and a ticket surcharge tied to repaying a loan can be separated from HRR.
