Thanks for sharing, I was considering using them (and I was even in the beta) but the product seemed way lacking and I didn't want to pay the extra fees - so I stayed on my custom implementation. For small businesses, you probably know better than Stripe what taxes you need to pay (no wonder how complicate they may be). Besides, your reasoning that you need to charge only canadian VAT is incorrect. If you sell to EU non business customers you need to charge EU VAT. If you sell over a certain threshold in most US states, you need to charge their sales tax. Australia is also threshold based. Now, my business is small enough I can ignore safely all the threshold for the foreseeable future (sigh) but I do need to track every damn European penny (and I don't sell to EU customers some services just because of this).
