| | Sales tax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Sales taxes are generally regressive, that is, poorer people tend to pay a greater percentage of their income in sales tax than richer people, because they tend to spend a far higher percentage of their income. | | | A related type of tax is the value-added tax, or VAT. | | | A conventional or retail sales tax attempts to achieve this by charging the tax only on retail transactions, not on businesses buying raw materials for production or finished goods for resale. |

And they will have two ways to determine just how big their sales tax deduction will be. |

| | The Canadian federal sales tax, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 7%, is collected on the sale of most goods and services throughout Canada and is levied on all taxable imports by Revenue Canada Customs and Excise. | | | The harmonized sales tax (HST) is a result of an agreement between the provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Newfoundland and the federal government to combine the PST and GST so that there will be a flat rate of 15%. | | | A single tax rate of 15%, made up of a federal component of 7% and a provincial component of 8%, in the three participating province is a significant reduction in the current tax rates. |
