The Quebec provincial government will impose local sales taxes on foreign suppliers of paid digital services like Netflix Inc. and Amazon.com Inc.'s Amazon Prime, starting in 2019, The Hollywood Reporter reported March 27.

The tax collection is expected to help Quebec pull in $27.5 million in new tax revenue in 2019 and $35 million in 2020.

In 2017, Quebec had unveiled plans to charge a provincial 9.75% sales tax on U.S. video and audio streamers operating locally.
