>>What if the UT were hosted in the US or elsewhere? The content would be placed outside Canadian borders. If funds were collected elsewhere and a "royalty" cheque were sent to you monthly, would this not effectively bypass the money grubbing canadian government (MGCG)? Discuss that with your tax lawyers.

I believe you did say something to the effect that the "information" on your server is being disseminated from Canada and therefore the "service" is being provided in Canada?

If you write a book and it is printed, published and sold in the US, do you have to charge GST for every book sold?

If you write a book and a Canadian publisher distributes it through a US chain, do they charge GST for each book sold in the US?
