If you bought the boat in USA and brought to Canada you pay the tax at the border on entry.
And don't feel so bad. It is 15% here Mike -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Stevan Plavsa Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2013 5:57 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List Canadians - retail sales tax used boat Hi All. I bought the 32 two years ago, literally two years ago. I just got a letter from the ministry of finance asking for 13% of the purchase price. Do they expect me to hold onto that money for two years? is there no kind of "right to a speedy trial" clause except instead of trial something like "right to a speedy robbery". ? I don't duck out of paying my fair share, I don't circumvent the rules but the government already collected sales tax on this boat! 33 years ago! So they make me wait two years and now they want payment within 60 days or .... "If this information is not received within 60 days of the mailing date, an estimated assessment with interest compounded DAILY at the current rate from the date of purchase, may be issued" yeah, that sounds reasonable Steve Suhana, C&C 32 Toronto _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
