That might be an error on Kobo's part. I'd suggest contacting them.
From the
Gift Cards item on a canada.ca web page, I see the following:
Quote:
When you buy a gift card, you don’t pay tax on the gift card. The retailer will charge tax when you buy a taxable item with the gift card. For example, you pay tax on a sweater you buy with a gift card, the same as you would when you pay with cash or credit.

The help screenshot also seems to show that the purchaser address has not been entered so that might be a default until you enter that information.
