Getting Ready for the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST)
Starting July 1, 2010, Ontario is harmonizing its provincial sales tax with the federal sales tax. The current retail sales tax (RST) will be replaced with a more modern, value-added tax that will be combined with the federal goods and services tax to create a harmonized sales tax (HST).
The HST is part of a comprehensive tax package to make Ontario's businesses more competitive and get people back to work. In addition to the HST, the package is delivering tax relief of $4.5 billion to business and $10.6 billion to people over three years.
Are you ready for the tax change?

Tips for Managers
Accelerate rather than predict. We're all operating in an era of
extreme volatility so don't get hung up on plans, which are only as
good as the possibly soon-to-be-outdated assumptions those plans are
based on.
"Whoever responds first, wins. Instantaneity
is the new expectation - no lag time between events and your actions."
-- Monday Morning, Harvey Schachter
