Promoting & Developing Tourism in Huntsville
About Us
On November 23, 2017, the Province of Ontario issued the Transient Accommodation Regulation 435/17, which came into force December 1, 2017 and provides the necessary provisions for municipalities across Ontario to implement a Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT).
On October 29th, 2018, Huntsville Town Council passed By-Law 2018-131, approving the implementation of a four per cent (4%) mandatory MAT applicable on all short-term accommodations under 30 days. The MAT came into effect on April 1, 2019, and applies to all accommodation sold for a continuous period of less than 30 days in a hotel, motel, lodge, inn, or bed and breakfast.

Land Acknowledgement
We respectfully acknowledge that we are on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, specifically the Chippewa, Ojibwa and Potawatomi peoples, under the terms of the Robinson-Huron Treaty #61 of 1850 and the Williams Treaties of 1923.
We are grateful to be here. We hope you are too.
Together, we honour all Indigenous peoples – First Nations, Métis and Inuit – for their cultures, their languages, their wise teachings and ways of being, their stewardship and protection of the lands and waters and life that have shaped this country since time began.
Together, we commit to acknowledge, to learn, to educate, to create opportunity and to honour sacred places, and to take actions toward real Truth and Reconciliation in support of our commitment to wellness for all, and to walking the path together in respect, peace and harmony for future generations.
G’chi miigwech. Thank you very much.
