- Last year CMH automatically deducted the tax from their foreign guest's
- bills. If Mike can't do this for you, you can pick up a form before you
- leave (Mike probably has them for you), fill it out and send it to where-
- ever it says :-) Then, after the appropriate amount of government time
- has elapsed, you'll get a check in the mail.
-
- If you buy anything in Canada, keep the receipt! You'll need it to get
- your refund.
