Two years after Justin Trudeau’s Liberals announced they would tighten charity tax laws for anti-abortion “crisis pregnancy centres,” his successor’s government says there are no plans to implement the proposed restrictions.

The federal government unveiled plans in October 2024 for amendments to the Income Tax Act that it said would prevent “abuse of charitable status” by organizations that offer counselling to pregnant people but may also hide their pro-life stance and spread misinformation about abortion.

Those amendments were not passed before the end of the fall session and Trudeau’s resignation as prime minister, however. Women and Gender Equality Canada spokesperson Erin Quevillon told the IJF this month that “we do not currently have plans to reintroduce it.”
