I feel like this is just something being said but then in practice retailers won’t even understand how to do it.

I am just thinking of how supermarkets do things.
You only pay tax on taxable items, but you don't pay tax on non-taxable items. So that means in their check out / payment system, each item must have a category of whether it is taxble or not, and it'll be specific to PST & GST as well.
So a change will have to made in that check out / payment system, and then it should be done.
