I know Davison is for a 4 year freeze which is why I am supporting him.
Mayor Nenshi asked a pretty good question in his letter posted on Twitter today.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but our taxes have increased by less than our population growth and inflation since 2016. We cannot sustain this forever.

So anyone who is promising a four-year tax freeze needs to explain how they will do it – particularly if they want to invest more in the largest department: the police.

There are only two ways: massive cuts to smaller departments like parks and recreations or using the savings account to paper over annual deficits. Maybe this is the right thing to do, but we need to be honest about it.

I don't think Davidson or Fark(no)us has answered those questions in any real-world way.

As for Gondek, here's what her principles on Property Taxes are.
