Why Am I Being Charged Tax?
Updated over 2 months ago

If you've noticed charges for Goods and Services Tax (GST) or Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) on your online purchases, you're not alone. This change is part of Canadian regulations aimed at levelling the playing field between online and in-store shopping.

Understanding the Taxes

GST is a federal tax, while HST combines federal and provincial components in certain provinces. These taxes are now applied based on your location, so if you live in a province with GST or HST, these charges will appear at checkout.
