But I do question the sanity of a country where you must pay tax on a
postage stamp. Is that still the case? It was in Vancouver in 1998. Oh,
and I mean federal VAT, not provincial taxes, as far as I recall.

Yes and now we pay HST (Harmonised Sales Tax) on postage stamps. FST + PST.

HST is complicated, Google is your friend if you want to know more.
