Here in Ontario, the gov't. offers a $2000 rebate, which I took into account when I was caluculating how much my new baby would cost me. However, once the purchase was made and I sat down at home to fill out the rebate papers, I learned that it was only a rebate of the provincial sales tax up to $2000.

But as I had traded in my quite new previous vehicle, I had only paid $580 in provincial tax. So that's all I would get back. Grrrr.
