    Hi Gerry Lewy and anyone else who might be interested in Canadian
    taxes: 

    There is no duty that applies to art objects, religious or
    otherwise. But the government is very strict in its application of
    Goods and Services Tax and Provincial Sales Tax. In Canada, they are
    7% and 8% respectively (combined to equal 15%) The only way to get
    around that is for a synagogue/church to claim status as a religious
    institution and even that only saves them the federal GST but not
    the Provincial PST.
