This is the one and only answer to this question. You only charge GST to canadian entities doing business in canada, period.

If you collect affiliate commissions you are collecting a payment for sales and marketing services rendered. If the company sending you the money is not a canadian company who is not doing business in canada, you do not charge GST.
