Complicated question. If you are under your duty free allowance, usually no. I have paid it on a day trip and have more often been waved through. I haven't been recently, but there is generally a long line. You tell them what you bought and the border guy decides. There also is a self assessment form for PST if you buy in another province which may net you a tax or a refund of a few percent but few bother with or are even aware of.
