theijf.org/article/pro-... The Canada Revenue Agency is attempting to revoke the charitable status of HonestReporting Canada, a notorious Zionist harassment and misinformation vehicle. HRC is challenging that decision in court, but the details of that audit + revocation are extremely funny:
In the January revocation notice, tax officials noted that a few months after the audit results were sent to HRCCO in July 2025, three “backgrounders” appeared on the charity’s website with the headings "Fake Post 1," "Fake Post 2" and "Fake Post 3." Each post contained the same article, with a description of the charity at the end.

“However, the description actually refers to HRC [HonestReporting Canada] and is the same information that HRC uses on its articles,” the appendix reads.

“It appears that, in an attempt to maintain its registered status, the organization purposely created webpages that contained false/misleading information to provide the impression that it conducts its own activities.”

7. Hope lies in the recognition that the left can also change the system. That the left too can mount a radical challenge to business as usual. It lies in twigging that elections here haven’t been won from the centre in years, and that this, if we can grasp the potential, can be used to good effect.
