    That is completely fucked. How is the renter possibly liable for taxes not paid by another person? That’s like going after every customer of a store that doesn’t forward the GST it collected.

    Revenue Canada is run by animals. These people have no compunctions about destroying lives with unfair practices.

      It is like that, and how it works for GST/PST. If I buy something outside Canada(either website/mail, or in person by leaving and coming back) and that seller doesn’t collect and submit sales taxes then I’m expected to submit those taxes myself.
