The combined sales tax rate ranges from 5% (in Alberta and all three territories) to 15.5% (in Prince Edward Island; they have a 10% PST and charge that on the GST). Saskatchewan, where I live, has a combined rate of 10% which is the second lowest in the country after Alberta.Brent McKeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14883838112004433045noreply@blogger.com
