I also know that they like to make calls just to confirm their records in interesting ways. We got a call one time saying that we owed them some crazy amount of money, when we didn't even have gross sales anywhere near that amount, much less outstanding GST. After I explained this, they moved on.

Just my experience.
Well like i said i am just an affiliate, I am not selling anything myself. There is no way to tell if a sale i sent to a program is a canadian or not anyways.

But i have to pay gst on commissions made from Canadian companies? Seems strange. I don't really deal with any canadian companies though besides a few sales here and there.
