Any good shopping carts that can handle canadian sales tax?

I'm talking GST, PST, HST and QST. I have seem some that have the GST or the GST and PST, but I want all four.

Thank you in advance!

Hi MrBojangles,

Your answer is osCommerce - but I know you're not a fan...

Sure it does, and in fact - osC goes one step better.

It allows you to set up as many tax zones as you require. Every Zone is currently loaded in and crossed referenced by postal/zip code.

This allows you to set up a tax zone for each province and territory, as well as allow you to change any zones (as provincial taxes often change in Canada) in about 30 seconds...

Best of luck in your search...
