  • U.S. Passenger Safety Fee - $2.60
  • Canada Domestic/International Air Travel Security Charge - $7.12
  • Canada Harmonized Sales Tax - $3.25
  • Canada Domestic/International Airport Improvement Fee - $25.00
  • U.S. International Transportation Tax - $16.60
  • U.S Passenger Facility Charge - $4.60
  • Canada Goods And Service Tax - $3.81
  • Fuel Surcharge - $54.00
  • NAV Canada - Air Navigation Services - $15.00
  • Total airport taxes, fees and surcharges per passenger - $131.98

Maybe that HST is just PST at this moment.
