Publisher's Synopsis
The Canadian Goods and Services Tax and Harmonized Sales Tax are taxes imposed, levied, and collected on goods and services sold in Canada as well as imported into Canada. As an employee with the Government of Canada, Canada Revenue Agency for 35 years, I have held positions as a Commodity Tax Auditor, GST/HST Technical Advisor, and Workload Development Analyst. During my tenure I developed and presented, within a classroom setting, internal technical GST/HST topics to Auditors, Audit Team Leader, and Audit Section Managers. I have reproduced some of the teaching presentations within this book and other HST/HST Technical material with a view of demonstrating the complexities and technicalities of the taxes. The contents of this book do not replace the legal statutory provisions within the Excise Tax Act and the referenced Income Tax Act. At the time of publication of this book Sections, etc. and/or Schedules may have been amended, added, or repealed with reference to the Excise Tax Act and the Income Tax Act.
