The GST rate across Canada, including Ontario is rated a 5%. The PST rate in Ontario is 8%. The total tax percent, GST & PST combined is 13%.
On July 01, 2010, the existing GST & PST will be replaced by one tax called Harmonize Sales Tax (HST). The tax rate will be 13%. The price tags on items will now include the taxes. For example; A sweater price tag says, $13.56. You will pay ONLY $13.56
Right now, the same sweater price tag says. $12.00. You pay $12.00x5% GST=0.60
, $12.00x8% PST=0.96
Total cost $13.56
The only difference is your receipt will show $12.00 + GST/PST and total of $13.56. With the HST,you won't see the taxes, because it's included in the price. Your receipt will only $13.52 total price. Hope this helps.
