The principal difference between the existing QST [Quebec sales tax] and the GST [goods and services tax] derives from the concept of non-taxable supplies present in the provincial regime. This concept ensures that the QST is a retail sales tax, that is, one which is collected at the retail level. The GST, in contrast, is a value-added tax which is collected and reimbursed at every stage along the production and marketing chain with the final consumer ultimately being the one to pay the tax.
