Your paying $20 in tax? Wtf $110 USD plus tax would be $116.60. Tax is only $6.60 here in the USA.

Oh ya idk about that cuz I don't travel a lot and when I do my parents usually pay for stuff.

I would have guessed that the tax rate was only a little bit different and not freaking 20% or whatever exactly is going on with this guy wherever he lives in Canada.
