[QUOTE="klein, post: 748904, member: 23950"] Here, so you know what will await you, if you visit Ontario anytime soon. (and maybe the future of a Vat tax in the US ) ??? [B][SIZE=3]Let them eat cake: The wacky world of the Harmonized Sales Tax [/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=3][/SIZE][/B] VICTORIA - If you're at a wedding some time after the harmonized sales tax kicks in on July 1, don't complain if you get cake for dinner and dessert. You're saving the bride and groom some money. When the HST takes effect in Ontario and British Columbia this week, wedding cake will be exempt from the levy but not catered meals. And if the wine is a bit salty, grin and drink up, because cooking wine is HST-free. The exemption for cakes and cooking wine are just two of the quirks that come with the controversial tax that will take the place of the provincial sales tax and the federal Goods and Services Tax in the two provinces later this week. more : [URL]http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/100628/business/hst_looms_tax_quirks[/URL] [/QUOTE]
