Federal Funding: Federal Court Justice Russel Zinn

Federal Court Justice Russel Zinn: Federal Court Justice Russel Zinn's ruling dismisses the federation's challenge of Kenney's decision not to continue funding for a language-instruction program for immigrants in 2009-10. , according to Winnipeg Free Press. Citizenship and Immigration told the federation in March 2009 that statements made by its officials appeared to be anti-Semitic and supportive of terrorist groups. OTTAWA - Former immigration minister Jason Kenney acted reasonably in cutting federal funding to the Canadian Arab Federation because the organization appeared to be supporting the actions of terrorist organizations, a judge says. It also strengthens the federal government's hand in adhering to its position that it will not give taxpayer dollars to organizations that tolerate or espouse hateful views.
