There is a List, Episode 4: The Charity Loophole

In Canada, charities are supposed to do good: feed people, educate, heal. But what happens when tax-subsidized dollars help fund groups that silence journalists and defend apartheid? In this episode, we investigate HonestReporting Canada, a media watchdog with charitable status that’s been accused of targeting reporters and shaping pro-Israel narratives in Canadian newsrooms. We trace where their millions come from and whose really footing the bill. With help from journalist Samira Moheyddin and researcher Miles Howe, we uncover how Canada’s charity system has become a backdoor for Zionist philanthropy – one that allows wealthy donors and private foundations to move money through tax breaks and loopholes, sometimes all the way to Israel. Ricochet Media’s newest podcast investigates how pro-Israel websites and Canadian charities target, surveil and silence pro-Palestine students, professors, and journalists – often women and people of colour – by documenting their names and actions in online dossiers. Through personal stories, data analysis, and deep reporting, There is a List asks who’s behind these lists and why they exist. Want to see more journalism like this?
