The Globe and Mail reports in its Saturday edition that U.S. tech giants will continue charging Canadian advertisers a fee to cover the digital services tax, which the federal government has yet to enforce and has vowed to cancel. The Globe's Pippa Norman writes that tech companies say they are waiting on Ottawa to table official legislation to drop the tax before making a decision about cancelling or refunding surcharges on Canadian advertisers. But without a clear timeline for legislation to be passed and Parliament on summer break, Canadian businesses will continue to see the policy affect their bottom line. "It's not that complicated. If they don't pay the tax, they don't surcharge. This is our expectation," said Jasmin Guénette, a lobbyist for the Canadian Federation of Independent Business. Prime Minister Mark Carney rescinded Canada's controversial digital services tax (DST) last week, two days after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to walk away from trade talks and impose retaliatory tariffs over the levy. The first payment of the tax, which was retroactive to 2022 and set to be collected June 30, would have cost American companies such as Amazon, Google, Airbnb, Meta and Uber about $2-billion (U.S.).
