  <content>We want an exemption for USED, Antique, Vintage, and salvaged items from the upcoming HST tax in Canada. USED goods are the ULTIMATE GREEN products &#8212; tax holidays have been given for HOT TUBS &#8212; why not used bikes, helmets, skates, furniture ?? WHY NOT?? The taxes have already been PAID on these long-lasting items, multitude of times.
STOP THIS UNGREEN TAX &#8212; and the hypocrisy our gov&#8217;t has of being GREEN.

If it works here in Canada, maye the US next?  HELP US GET THE MESSAGE OUT.</content>
