Tax on non-Quebec clients removed

Article Abstract:

The Quebec government has abolished a tax provision that weakened the competitiveness of Quebec-based ad agencies against other Canadian agencies. The abolished provision requires ad agencies based in the province to add the 7.5% Quebec sales tax to invoices sent to clients outside the province, even for ad campaigns that did not run there. The province's ad industry spends about $3.1 billion annually and 33% of that comes from outside Quebec.
