Charity that worked with Palestinians added to Canada’s terror list

A Mississauga charity that has worked in the Palestinian territories has been added to the federal government’s list of terrorist entities.

On Tuesday, the government said it had reasonable grounds to believe that the International Relief Fund for the Afflicted and Needy Canada (IRFAN-Canada) has “knowingly carried out, attempted to carry out, participated in or facilitated a terrorist activity or is knowingly acting on behalf of, at the direction of or in association with such an entity.”
