Summary#
The Canada Revenue Agency says a previously published notice about revoking a charity’s registration under the Income Tax Act was published in error. The erratum refers to a notice about CANADIAN REFORMED CHURCH OF ALDERGROVE (BN 138153473RR0001) that appeared in the Gazette on January 14, 2023; the correction was published on February 4, 2023.
What it does#
- Withdraws/corrects a previously published “notice of intention to revoke” that appeared in the Canada Gazette on January 14, 2023.
- Names the charity whose notice was published in error: CANADIAN REFORMED CHURCH OF ALDERGROVE (BN 138153473RR0001).
Who's affected#
- The main party named is CANADIAN REFORMED CHURCH OF ALDERGROVE (BN 138153473RR0001).
- The notice does not clearly say whether the charity’s registration was actually revoked or remains valid. It’s unclear from this item who beyond the charity might be directly affected.
Why it matters#
- A “notice of intention to revoke” signals a possible loss of registered charity status, which can affect tax receipts and donor confidence.
- Because this particular publication was an error, the erratum aims to stop confusion. The Gazette notice itself does not make clear the charity’s current legal status — anyone concerned (donors, members, or service users) should check with the charity or the Canada Revenue Agency for confirmation.
