ROTFLMAO!!!

Yes, 8.5% GST (federal sales tax), on top of which you add 7.5% PST (provincial sales tax), which is calculated OVER the previous tax, so even the tax is taxed!!!

Here I pay 8.25% tax. That's it!

Your best bet is to find a Canadian supplier that's not in Quebec, to avoid the PST. You'll pay shipping, but on a valuable order, it's worth it.
