I don't care either way about the collection of Canadian taxes by BL because i track those in another system (and pay them at tax time). Now maybe they can work on seller tools!?! I’m holding my breath! Additional Charges 1 works fine for me and i barely ever have any questions about it. I see you're charging everyone 13% HST, but making a note in the terms "If you live in a province with less sales tax you may want to change the shipping method to "Request Invoice" and we will apply the correct sales tax for your Province.". The only province 13% HST applies to is Ontario, but your store is in AB. I'm sure you're aware it isn't legal to collect sales tax beyond what is required, so I hope/assume you've refunded all overages collected, even if they didn't select Request an Invoice. This is why the tax tables are important and why instant checkout isn't great for Canadian sellers/buyers at the moment.
