<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aidan Work, post: 69257, member: 1824&quot;]In Canada,it is not only a federal tax that is imposed,but a provincial Harmonised Sales Tax is also imposed in some Canadian</p><p>provinces,but not in others.I can guess that the same situation applies to Australia - a federal sales tax,plus a sales tax imposed by the Aussie states themselves.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here in New Zealand,we pay 12-1/2% Goods &amp; Services Tax (G.S.T. or Government Swindle Tax,or as Canadians like to say,</p><p>&#039;Gouge &amp; Screw Tax&#039;) on just about everything.New Zealanders pay some of the highest airfares,because of the ridiculous levies &amp; surcharges,which the airlines don&#039;t usually indicate in their advertising.As soon as the price of oil goes up,so do the surcharges.Lately,the price of a barrel of oil has been going up &amp; down like a yo-yo,but the surcharges still go up.It is ridiculous.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aidan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
