Canadian e-commerce grows, taxman notices
Purely by coincidence, Statistics Canada — the government agency — reported that Canadians ordered C$12.8 billion worth of goods online in 2007, just a few days after the Federal Court of Appeal ordered EBay Canada to hand over all information needed to identify at least 10,000 of the northland’s Powersellers, defined as those selling more than $1,000 a month. EBay, which says more than 32,000 Canadians now make at least significant earnings via its site, has for two years fought the original order to hand over records from 2004 and 2005. Sorry, EBayers: with automakers seeking billions in bailouts, the government needs every bit of tax it can scrounge. (More here.)
