WHEREAS the freedom that Canadians enjoy is a result of the efforts of our Veterans during
various armed conflicts in the last century; and
WHEREAS many nations provide their veterans with pensions based solely on their war time
service; and
WHEREAS although the Federal Government does have pensions available to Canadian Veterans,
these pension programs are tied to levels of income or disability; and
WHEREAS a local resident, and veteran, has proposed a tax break of $5,000 for Canadian Veterans.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Niagara Falls City Council petition the Federal
Government to provide a tax break to Canadian Veterans.
