Competitive Advantage

Hawkesbury has low real estate costs and unlike most municipalities in Ontario, no development charges.

The Province of Ontario as a whole is a competitive marketplace, with corporate tax rates significantly lower than many U.S. states such as California, Illinois, Michigan, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

In fact, KPMG's comprehensive 2008 Competitive Alternatives study of international business costs confirmed once again that Ontario business costs are among the most competitive of the G7 countries.
