A receipt under an HST tax scheme looks almost the same as a receipt under the previous GST/PST tax scheme, but with only one tax line.

For example, a separate tax scheme using GST and PST would apper as:

Item: $19.99

Subtotal: $19.99

GST @ 5.00%: $1.00

PST @ 7.00%: $1.40

Total: $22.39

Whereas a blended tax scheme using only HST would appear as:

Item: $19.99

Subtotal: $19.99

HST @ 12.00%: $2.40

Total: $22.39

How does the government collect GST?

In Canada it is the registrants who collect GST/HST from the people to whom they provide their goods and services. Depending on their filing frequency of thier GST/HST returns (monthly, quarterly or annually), they indicate the amount of GST/HST that they have collected as well as the GST/HST that they paid as inputs to their commercial activity (input tax credits). The input tax credits are deducted from the GST/HST collected and the balance (positive or negative) becomes their net tax. They then either remit (if a positive amount) or claim their "refund" (negative amount). The government doesn't actually "collect" the tax, they receive it from their tax collectors...the GST/HST registrants.
