Our funding was a mixed formula. Fifty percent came from the municipal tax base and fifty percent from the provincial government.
The province only funded the census population. Not the business day / visitor population. As a result, there were always more people requiring service than the system was funded for.
Taxpayers got what they paid for. They could go cheap, depending how long they were willing to wait, or ante up for a decent Response Time.
The 50 - 50 provincial / municipal funding formula is something Ontario residents may wish to take into consideration regarding Response Times.
