Let me try to get this right. Any money we ever earn in any way that comes from another place than canada, we have to simply send 7% of it to the government for GST? Even money collected from sponsors and stuff like that? I'm not talking about the money you make with you own paysite here...

Also, I just don't see why the government is asking us to charge GST to non-canadian resident? Of course, we don't charge them, we just take 7% off from our check and send it their way, but that simply doesn't make sense. I'm pretty sure there's gotta be a ruling somewhere related to that where a company won its case against the government in such a situation.

Quiet: you say there is nothing you could do against that? So you are sending 7% of all your revenues every month to the GST? That sucks damn bad man! Can't understand why they do that. As if we were not already overtaxed up here.
