I paid my 2018 BC property taxes in March 2019. Can I claim the against my 2018 rental income, even if the tax was paid in 2019?

The property tax was all associated with the 1 rental property. My concern is that I paid the 2018 taxes in 2019 (it was a late payment), and I would like to claim it on my 2018 return. Not sure if I can claim it on my 2018 return since I paid in 2019, or if I have to claim it on my 2019 return next year.
