FYI, since most people don't know.  The Social Services Tax Act requires you to remit the tax to  government when you purchased something out of province.

This is the by-law definition.  I doubt anyone does that since it is impossible to enforce anyway.

I don't mean city bylaw, sorry for the wrong word.  I mean it is the BC law's definition.

Social service tax act is a BC law.

If anyone remember, few years back, BC government requested Costco in Alberta to report all the purchase records of their BC members who shopped at Alberta Costco.  The plan of the BC government is to recollect the appropriate tax.

Costco denied the request eventually.

Catpiano, BC is money grabber.  

But you don't pay tax when shopping south at Washington.
