Hmm=E2=80=A6 I don=E2=80=99t have a problem with monetarily targeting folks=
 who take unfair advantage of not-for-profits, but suggest that such charac=
ters are rare birds.  I have a huge problem if honest disagreement with the=
 direction a government takes gets construed as a =E2=80=9Cpolitical=E2=80=
=9D activity.  Mutually respectful debate helps all of us find the right an=
swer, and the best friends tell us when we are going astray.

 

Stifling debate has adverse effects on respect and trust.

Its no problem Don. 

If you want to engage in political affairs, forgo you tax exemption privile=
ges. 

Then you can say whatever you like. 

Seems a simple point to me. 

Enjoy the winter

I think you missed the point Paul.  This group is being hasseled because it=
 is voicing concerns about what the government is doing that might hurt the=
 birds, etc.  As a birding group they should be able to voice their displea=
sure and not be silenced.  It shouldn't affect their charitable status.

And good on Revenue Canada Richard. 

Everyone should pay what they owe. 

Some of our friends found they are not a good department to play games with=
! 

Even Al Capotian found that out. 

Enjoy the winter
