New academic article by Howe and Sylvestre “Burner Charities and Big Gifters—Tracking Illicit Activity Within in the Canada to Israel Charity Pipeline”
Howe and Sylvestre in this article expand upon research surrounding transgressional charities within the Canada to Israel charitable subsector. Juxtaposed against credible accusations of anti-Muslim bias within the Canada Revenue Agency’s (CRA) charitable enforcement sector, this article suggests significant financial loss to the Canadian economy (potentially exceeding $1 billion CDN) as a result of transgressional, charitable, activity within the subsector.
This article expands upon research surrounding transgressional charities within the Canada to Israel charitable subsector. Juxtaposed against credible accusations of anti-Muslim bias within the Canada Revenue Agency’s (CRA) charitable enforcement sector, this article suggests significant financial loss to the Canadian economy (potentially exceeding $1 billion CDN) as a result of transgressional, charitable, activity within the subsector. This paper further considers the leniency with which the CRA addresses instances of transgressional activity, both from a case-by-case and endemic standpoint. Aligning with the general critiques of philanthrocapitalism, regulatory enforcement within the Canadian charitable sector appears to target frontline operations, despite ample evidence of financial complicity with many of Canada’s most sizeable private foundations.
