I don’t want to add salt to your wound but I’m genuinely curious - which problem was this supposed to solve and for what target group?


Sales taxes are confusing in Canada, because many products and services are taxed according to where you live in the country. I thought that was a problem Canadians would like solved.

In reality, most people just assume everything but food at the grocery store is HST taxable. They think they know the tax rates and will not challenge their own assumptions.
