Canadian Government bid to remove charitable status from 'advancement of religion' groups & anti-abortion organizations [View all]

Tough shit god boy.

Canadian Government bid to remove charitable status from ‘advancement of religion’ groups and anti-abortion organizations draws ire of Evangelicals.

Recommendation 429 calls for the government to “no longer provide charitable status to anti-abortion organizations” and Recommendation 430 wants to amend the Income Tax Act to “provide a definition of a charity which would remove the privileged status of ‘advancement of religion’ as a charitable purpose,” stated the EFC.

Both recommendations are found in the report under Chapter Five, “A Competitive Fiscal Policy, Sustainable Finances and Efficient Government Operations.”
