Hi,

With respect to Quebec, there is no tax if the boat and owner reside in Quebec 
and is bought by someone residing in Quebec. 

If the boat is brought into Quebec from another province there is tax. The 
selling broker (e.g. Nova Scotia) SHOULD NOT apply sales tax. It is up to the 
owner to do that themselves within Quebec. If this happens Quebec WILL collect 
the tax from the new owner, and the new owner will have to pursue  getting 
his/her sales tax back from Nova Scotia (a real mess).
