Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have asked this previously, if we can look at somehow lowering the assessment or the lease rate that agricultural leases pay. I know the lease rates are quite generous, but there are some perverse incentives here. Every time an agricultural lessee builds infrastructure, then their assessment goes up, and they end up paying more tax. There's a bit of a perverse incentive to build large greenhouses. I recognize we are only having to deal with six farms, but one day maybe that can be 12 farms.
As part of this work, can we look at a subsidized rate for agricultural leases? I would have no issue if we gave people agricultural leases for free. If people agree to farm the land, I am completely happy to lose the very small amount we get in our budget that we actually take from them. I think right now the assessment process is creating a bit of a disincentive. As part of the pricing update, will the Minister create a lower rate for agricultural lessees? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
