The taxes that you pay at the pump vary depending upon which country as well as which province/state you are in. In Canada, you pay a 10.0% federal excise tax, GST/HST (5.0% except in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Newfoundland and Labrador where it is 13.0%), a provincial tax (varies between 6.2% - 16.5%), carbon tax (British Columbia only, 2.34%), transit tax (varies between provinces), and a provincial sales tax (Quebec only, 7.5%).

A sales tax on gasoline is an example of an indirect tax. This type of tax is imposed on the sale of goods and services rather than directly on income or profit. Consumers typically pay this tax at the point of purchase, and it is usually included in the price of the gasoline. Indirect taxes can be passed on to consumers, making them a common way for governments to generate revenue.
