My understanding is that goods purchased in other provinces in the 
good faith that they would be used in those provinces are not taxable.
In other words, as in the case of a very lawful and meticulous friend
of mine, a car bought in Manitoba while living in Man. is not taxed
when you move to Ont. to start a new job.  In the case in question, he
had lived in Man. and gone to school for 6 years and bought the car just
prior to accepting a job in Ottawa.  He even drove the same car back to 
Man. to get married.  

On the other hand, the law seems to exist to prevent people from crossing
a border and buying things cheaper.  

Anyone want to discuss bringing Brador to Ont. from QUebec back in
the dark ages (1975-77)?
