In a detailed complaint to the CRA, we have submitted evidence of Sheba’s support for and connection to the Israeli military. As well, the Sheba Medical Center is working directly with major arms company Elbit Systems, which is the largest supplier of arms to the Israeli military. You can review examples of the evidence online.
We demand the CRA:
1. Review Canadian Friends of Sheba Medical Center’s (CFSMC) donations to institutions that support a foreign military and illegal occupation.
2. Investigation violations of the Income Tax Act, CRA policy, international and (other) domestic laws.
Even as Israel has killed at least 71 Palestinians in attacks across the Gaza Strip since dawn today — 21 of whom were seeking aid, according to medical sources (the Cradle), our Canadian tax dollars are supporting genocide.
Over the last 12 years, CFSMC sent nearly $28 million to the Sheba Medical Center in Israel. In 2024 alone, CFSMC sent $9,684,320 to Sheba Medical Center.
Sheba Medical Center in Israel is and always has been deeply connected to the Israeli military. Sheba was established in 1948 by David Ben-Gurion: “I asked Chaim Sheba to create the state’s first military hospital at Tel Hashomer.” Now, Sheba continues to be the main hospital serving the Israeli military. CFSMC report that “Sheba is also where 100% of injured IDF soldiers go for rehab.”
Just Peace Advocates is supporting the upcoming National Week of Action to demand the Canada Revenue Agency Stop Subsidizing Genocide. Rallies are taking place to coincide with the Sept 5 UN International Day of Charity. Join an action or plan one in your area.
Canadian taxpayers continue to subsidize tax breaks for war crimes and genocide, even as a UN report confirms half a million Palestinians experiencing manmade famine in Gaza With indication that Gaza has reached Phase-5 status, the UN-backed global hunger monitor has officially declared famine in Gaza City saying “514,000 people – nearly a quarter of Palestinians in Gaza – are experiencing famine” and warning the number will rise to 641,000 by the end of September. Tell CRA that enough is enough–that these charities using our tax dollars to support war crimes and genocide need to end.
