Hi Don,
              If you are brought into a community as an outside contractor, 
by a resident, then you do not need a local sales licence.  If you solicit 
in the community then you do need a local licence, in many communities.  In 
both cases, you need a provincial and federal sales tax number if your 
gross income is over $30K per annum.

I think the rules are different for owner operated businesses, than for 
limited companies, but I'm not sure on that.

Regards Roger
