Doing restorations across Canadian border?

So, you're saying they could be taxed twice? They could drive down, pay sales tax on the parts in the States...and yet you'd have to pay taxes again when you cross the border back to Canuckville, for what? Property tax? Can't be sales tax, the goods were sold in the US so that goes to Uncle Sam...could Canada really charge a tax for not doing anything?

Totally off subject, but think how much in taxes is paid on cars right here in the USA...EVERY time a car changes hands that same car is taxed... If a single car is bought and sold enough times, "the man" can easily end up with as much in sales taxes on the car as its original purchase price when owner #1 initially BOUGHT it... I always thought that was quite the racket, and that sales tax should only be charged on new cars, when they are first sold to customer #1...after that you're paying tax on something that was already taxed once (or twice or 3 times!) Wishful thinking I know, but it seems silly that the sale of the same car can be taxed over and over again every time its transferred to a different person.
