Why? HST was the opportunity the government used to increase private sales to 12%, it should have gone back to 7% when the HST was repealed but it didn't.
There's no one to blame except the collusion that occurred between the provincial government and the new car dealers association for quietly sliding that change through even when HST was repealed. You want to blame someone, contact these guys:

I don't think you're entirely in the clear. I think the buyer is the one they'd go after for money since that's all the government cares about anyway, but that said the APV9T very clearly has a red box around the selling price that you are declaring in the sale and below that the legalese reads something to the effect that by signing here you are guaranteeing you have not received anything above and beyond the consideration you wrote in that box.
Up to you man. You're still signing a legal document with a value you declared on it that you knew to be false. You could always just claim ignorance though or say that you signed the form and handed it off and it was out of your hands when the actual ownership transaction took place (this happens quite commonly)
