what does the PST stand for? Provincial Sales Tax. Just like State tax and they vary from Province to Province. Alberta, for example, has no Provincial sales tax. -------------------------------------------- On Wed, 4/16/14, awoelflebater@... mailto:awoelflebater@... <awoelflebater@... mailto:awoelflebater@...> wrote: Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Happy Tax Day!

There is no income tax where I live and the sales tax is aroun 8%, compared to 14% in Canada. 5% GST and 7% PST in BC, actually, and some things have only 5% on them but GST is Goods and Services so that means not just stuff but labor/service is taxed as well. However, I would be willing to pay my fair share of a flat tax on income - about 1%. Go figure. I figure that is not much in anybody's method of doing math.
