But I gather from what you're saying that Apple pretty much insists upon it?

*sigh*... I'm really not looking forward to all this extra accounting I'm going to do (for what may be little more than just a few extra dollars a month or something -- or however it is that it works). :/
No, what I'm saying is that my impression that I'd need a GST number was a mistaken one. If you download the Canadian GST paperwork from your iTunesConnect account and look at it, the GST number that's required is *Apple's* GST number. That paperwork is needed for you to grant Apple permission to collect and remit GST on your behalf. I was so relieved because I really didn't want to go through all the rigamarole of GST reporting if I absolutely didn't have to!
