Why I Hate Canada

Recommended Posts

There isn't much I hate about Canada, but the exorbitant sales tax isn't cool. I know you can get Duty back but I always forget to fill out the forms...Then again, I pay a pretty high sales tax anyway... -Katie

Edit: How could I forget-I do HATE The Canadian Seal Hunt. I'm a big Canada lover but I really wish they'd ditch this.

You can usually get taxes paid to foreign governments back when you file your federal income tax in the spring.

Yeah but you have to pick up forms...which I never remember to do. Actually my main trip to Canada each year results in a lot of unclaimed anime merchandise, haha! They'll never catch on to me...because they would never believe someone would pay $20 for a plastic keychain featuring a random anime character. -Katie

PS-Is it just New York that makes you automatically pay $15 "assuming" that you either bought something online, in Canada or on the Rez and didn't pay tax?

I think it's just New York.
