Section 91(3) of the Constitution Act, 1867 grants to the Parliament of Canada vast authority to levy taxes through any method. The passage of the Act, and the collection of taxes, were set up before the appointment of a post-Confederation prime minister. Section 92(2) of the Act grants more narrow taxation powers to the provinces, authorizing direct taxes (such as levying their own provincial sales taxes).Perhaps the most notable creation of a federal tax is the controversial enactment of the Goods and Services Tax (the GST) by the Right Honourable Brian Mulroney, P.C., then the 18th prime minister. The sales tax is charged on all provinces, and in five provinces, is blended with the provincial sales tax.
The Stamp Act was passed by the British POarliament which imposed direct taxes on the American colonists on 22 March, 1765.
