What is Harmonized Sales Tax for us Staties that have no idea?
It is a sales tax PLUS Goods and Services tax - in BC it is 14% - it's outrageously expensive living there - I came from there and spent quite a long time there last year - glad to only be paying 7% now - seems like it is more doable. And fabric is priced from $16.00 and up for a meter (39 inches) - so I'm happy with the US prices - for now...............
