yes there is at 7%
Zero % no sales tax from the Provence yet.
pst (provincial sales tax)--7% gst (goods & services tax [canada wide])--5%
The harmonized sales tax varies by province. In Ontario, for example, it is 13% of the sales price, for items that are taxable. It is 15% in Nova Scotia, yet only 5% in Saskatchewan or Manitoba. In Quebec, because there is a provincial tax that is paid on the federal tax (it's a compound tax) it works out to 13.925%.
In Canada you will have to pay provincial sales tax and also the GST. In some provinces this has been combined into the HST or Harmonized Sales Tax. The best plan is to contact the CRA through their website and find out what taxes need to be paid in your province.

Provincial Sales Tax
no but ya mom does
5 percent.Every province except Alberta has implemented either a provincial sales tax or the Harmonized Sales Tax. The federal GST rate is 5 percent, effective January 1, 2008. The territories of Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut have no territorial sales taxes, so only the GST is collected.
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).
no, Manitoba is the most highly tax province in Canada
Every Province in Canada taxes differently. Some have PST which is a Provincial Sales Tax. Not all Provinces have a PST but all Provinces charge GST which is a Goods and Services Tax. You would have to be more specific as to where and what you are buying.
Tax amounts can be determined by both provincial and federal governments, depending on the type of tax. Federal governments typically set rates for national taxes, such as income tax and goods and services tax (GST), while provincial governments set rates for provincial taxes, like sales tax and income tax. Each level of government has its own jurisdiction and authority to legislate tax policies, leading to a combination of federal and provincial tax responsibilities.
