I did the same, used some good kroil to creep inbetween the two, and did the tapping with a hammer in the engine bay. The engine was out though making it alot easier.

I used your average crow bar about 2ft long and set it against the column tube and gave it a few smack with the trusty o'l BFH. I had someone pull from the inside as well it didn't move at first untill there was some strain the same time it was being hit. I am in Canada too so with all the rust on my car it came off that way you should be able to get it. Good luck
