There is a change to this scheme. The consumer will now have to submit their receipts to the CRA at tax time to receive their rebate unless the retailer does it at the till. It is now not mandatory for the retailer to delete the GST from products.
Big deal, City News. Several key points that you did not report: 1) it's optional for stores and businesses to participate. The CFIB posted this on their site last night (Dec 13) at 6 PM. I don't blame the stores if they choose not to because of the headaches and costs to implement and unimplement this scheme. 2) Consumers who are still being charged GST during this window because of point 1 will have to submit a claim to the CRA to get a rebate. The prime minister and his merry band of misfits never once said anything about consumers needing to do this.
BREAKING NEWS: Well now we learned that businesses and large companies are not required to impose the tax break! PepsiCo already publicly announced it! CFIB also has it on their website. Not MANDATORY!
We are still using a currency that hasn’t existed in years. I sure am not benefiting from that. the banks are. Use cash so they don’t get millions in pennies.
I love how everyone’s so oblivious I mean yeah take advantage but don’t be voting for him because he gave us a break from something we shouldn’t have in the first place. He’s got nothing else but how Pierre doesn’t agree with it but why would he, he sees right through it too this is just to try and make him look better for elections but not fooling me
Hst tax break should be permanent
This is not a "tax holiday" when it's only for select items. Twice as much money will be wasted trying to comply with the list than people will save.
We need a Treadeau holiday. That would be better
That's coming....
Saving money by purchasing things you don’t need. Sounds legit.
Buy only what you need, genius. Sounds legit.
Oh and thanks for making it so we’re all so broke we can’t even enjoy this “tax holiday”
This is the worst idea ever. They should have planned better how they were going to operationalize this.

Good delivery services like uber eats is probably just pocketing a the taxes as they haven’t removed them from the app
