Yes, Manitoba charges Provincial Sales Tax (PST) on freight services. The tax applies to the transportation of goods when the freight charges are part of the total sale price of the goods. However, if the freight is separately stated and the goods being transported are exempt from PST, the freight charges may also be exempt. Always check the latest regulations or consult with a tax professional for specific situations.


What is the PST in Ontario?

There is no PST, per se. Ontario has harmonized its provincial sales tax with the federal GST (Goods and Services Tax). What Ontario now has is the provincial component of the Harmonized Sales Tax and that portion sits at 8% for a combined total of 13% HST (5% federal component + 8% provincial component).

Shop Alberta no sales tax beat b c harmonized sales tax?

Though your right in the sense that there is only PST charged in Alberta, where there needs to be some clarification is that it is not due to HST that we are paying more tax on vehicles in BC. This is a myth. In fact, (and especially in new vehicle purchases) both PST and GST were charged on vehicle purchases anyways.

How much is the GST in Ontario Canada?

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.
