When I bought my house it was new, I had to pay tax on it. At that time HST was in affect, 2 weeks after I signed the papers but before I had taken possession the HST was repealed. Even though I had not taken possession I still had to pay HST instead of GST because I signed before the repeal. It ended up costing me 35 grand in additional tax that my neighbour who signed after didn't have to pay.
In the foreign tax there doing the complete opposite because it works to there benefit. I'm not opposed to the new 15% tax but I don't think it should apply to those who already had contracts before it came into affect. The Government will have it's cake and eat it too every single time.
