The CRA National Week of Action to demand the Canada Revenue Agency Stop Subsidizing Genocide is happening between Sept. 2–5, 2025. Rallies are taking place to coincide with the UN International Day of Charity on September 5th.
Last year there were actions at about 20 of the 50 CRA offices across the country.
Over the past three years detailed complaints have been submitted to the CRA asking it to investigate several dozen Israel-focused charities, including the Canadian Zionist Cultural Association, Mizrachi Canada, Jerusalem Heritage Foundation of Canada, Canada Charity Partners and HESEG Foundation. The CRA should investigate these organizations and others assisting West Bank colonies and the Israeli military.
Over 200 registered charities funnel over a quarter billion dollars in subsidized donations to Israel annually, which has a per capita GDP equal to Canada’s.
Tell CRA that charities using our tax dollars to support war crimes and genocide need to end
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.
