Bette's Single Family & Seniors Food Bank Of Westbank

Canada Revenue Agency Dept: Bette's Single Family & Seniors Food Bank of Westbank, which opened in 2008, violated numerous sections of the Income Tax Act, according to the CRA. However, the food bank's president said it would appeal the decision, according to Vancouver Sun. The remaining 65, including 11 in B.C., had their charitable status revoked for the less serious offence of failing to file their annual information returns and the Canada Revenue Agency has stripped the tax-exempt status from 67 charities, including a B.C. food bank that used a higher chunk of its donations to cover the president's wages and expenses than it did buying food for clients. Another charity, the Canadian Quad-raplegic sic Association of Etobicoke, Ont., was also found to have violated several sections of the law. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
