Correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea of this tax is to punish private sales and force us to handover money to the politically donating class by using their dealers.
The value of our trade-in is reduced from the sale price, thus 'saving' us sales tax on the new car.
If ICBC told us the number, then we could turn around and claim that when trading in a car right?
No way the government of BC would want that kind of level playing field.
