Toronto Charity For the Poor Accused of Tax Shelter Scheme

The Toronto Star reported on Friday, November 30, 2007, that International Charity Association Network (ICAN) is “forbidden from issuing tax receipts, and must itself warn people who still want to donate that it is under suspension.”  The article states that the charity “claims to have given $244 million in aid to the poor – but hasn’t provided the proof to back that up.”  See the full story, “Toronto Charity ICAN Suspended by Federal Regulator,” in the November 30, 2007, issue of the Toronto Star.
