Original Broadcast Date: October 19, 2023.

Summary: A great deal has been written about legal compliance surrounding charities in Canada. Much of that material, however, is highly specialized, hard to understand and sometimes esoteric. As a result, it can be extremely difficult for charities, employees, and volunteers to focus on the issues that are most important for charities.

This webinar provides plain language information and resources about the CRA compliance obligations of Canadian charities for 2023, including the following topics:

  • Mistakes with T3010
  • Incorrect Receipts
  • Acting Outside Legal Objects
  • Non-Charitable Activities
  • Funding Non-Qualified Donees
  • Fundraising Costs and Practice
  • Employment Issues
  • Political Activities
  • Unrelated Business Activities
  • Restricted Gifts
