What are the bicycle taxes in Canada?
in Cycling ·
Just some basic math here,
so if a bike costs, say, $100, sales tax can't possibly be $23 in the US or $19 in Canada.
I mean, that $23 or $19 figure only works if the sticker price is actually $123 or $119—if the base is $100, then the actual tax rate isn't 23% or 19%, it's way higher (like 29.9% in the US or 23.5% in Canada).
plus, you've got those middleman fees to consider too.
