Bonus: Navigating the GST/HST Holiday: What Your Business Needs to Know

Determining the best way to manage new business regulations is critical, especially when those changes impact how you handle sales and customer transactions.

On this special bonus episode of the podcast, I’m diving into the GST/HST Holiday Proposal, a temporary measure designed to provide financial relief to Canadians during the upcoming holiday season. This new regulation, effective from December 14, 2024, to February 15, 2025, will require businesses to remove GST/HST charges on specific goods.

In this episode, I’ll break down what the proposal means, what types of goods qualify, and share practical strategies for businesses to prepare for these changes, including updates to point-of-sale systems, staff training, and customer communication.
