How the money works

From the T3010 return for the fiscal year ended March 2024 (Apr 2023 – Mar 2024), in Canadian dollars — CRA data ↗.

Fundraising costs are a different way of slicing the same spending — they include fundraisers' pay — so they're listed separately rather than added to the lines above.

Percentages are shares of the total reported on the T3010 return, not of the lines shown. Figures are as filed, in Canadian dollars, rounded for display.
