What is a Tael (Hong Kong)? Palladium weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The Hong Kong tael (37.429 g, 1.20337 troy ounces) is the contract unit of the Chinese Gold & Silver Exchange Society. Locally it is written 司馬両. One tael (hong kong) equals 37.429 grams, or 1.20337 troy ounces, which at today's palladium spot price works out to — CAD.
Where it is used. Hong Kong dealers quote loco-HK gold in taels, and 5-tael cast bars are the classic regional investment format. The unit is the trading standard in Hong Kong.
Pricing conventions. The local tael quote can trade at a small premium or discount to the London ounce price, and that spread is watched as an indicator of mainland Chinese demand. Palladium is almost entirely an industrial metal, so a retail quote in this unit is a conversion from the ounce price rather than a rate you will see posted in a shop.
Good to know. Hong Kong jewellery is also sold in 'chi' and 'fan' — one tenth and one hundredth of a tael respectively.

Buying Palladium in Canada: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per tael (hong kong), the price you see here is the international XPD spot price converted into Canadian Dollar. Physical buyers in Canada pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Toronto and the Royal Canadian Mint distribution network. Buyers there generally watch the LBMA price converted at the Bank of Canada daily rate as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Platinum must be 99.95% to be zero-rated; numismatic and lower-purity items are taxed at the provincial rate. Palladium is dominated by industrial buyers, so retail coins and bars are scarce and premiums move sharply with supply news. That is why the shop price of palladium in CAD can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same tael (hong kong) of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in Canada are Royal Canadian Mint, bank-linked bullion desks, online dealers and TSX-listed metal trusts. The products most often quoted locally include Gold Maple Leaf, Silver Maple Leaf, RCM 1 kg bars, Maplegram sheets.
Local conventions. The Maple Leaf is struck at 99.99% fineness, one of the purest mass-market bullion coins available. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per tael (hong kong) with the live palladium price above, and check the buy-back spread the same dealer offers — that round-trip cost matters more than a small difference in the headline CAD quote.
