  • Which Canadian Charities Had the Largest Assets in 2014?
    www.canadiancharitylaw.ca Which Canadian charities had the largest assets in 2014? By Mark Blumberg (March 23, 2016) We recently reviewed the T3010 information for 2014. It covers about 84,370 of the 86,000 registered charities that have so far filed their return and that have been entered into the CRA’s database. Canadian registered charities are currently required to disclose on the T3010 their assets. The total assets of all the 84,370 registered charities were about $373,050,327,255.00. Below we have a table of Canadian charities and how much they spent as reported for the 2014 fiscal year. Thank you to Celeste Bonas, an intern at Blumbergs, for helping with this project. The Sean Blumberg Transparency Project is in memory of my youngest brother Sean Blumberg. Sean was a sweet, kind person, a great brother who helped me on a number of occasions with many tasks including the time consuming and arduous task of reviewing T3010 databases and making them into something useful. As part of the Sean Blumberg Transparency Project, Blumbergs has been releasing information on the Canadian charity sector to provide a better understanding of the size, scope, complexity and challenges of the sector. Please review my caveats at the end about the reliability and usage of T3010 information. 1 www.canadiancharitylaw.ca List of Canadian charities with the largest assets in 2014 Line 4200 Name of Canadian Registered Charity largest assets 1.

Acknowledgements p. 53 1 CAIS Learning Series - Long-Term Disruptions: Problems, Strategies & Opportunities ​ ​ ​ Resource Guide for CAIS School 1- Introduction and How to use this Resource In the spring of 2020, education faced its biggest disruption in a century when schools closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. School leaders were largely unprepared for the challenge of continuing to educate their students with physical schools closed. In North America, the response varied enormously. Many Canadian independent schools shifted their practices online within one-two weeks. Some were providing fully online classes in just a few days. Questions are now being raised, the answers to which are unclear in this unprecedented situation. What will we learn from this experience that will inform our practice as educators? What has this disruption taught us about the demands we will face as the rate of change accelerates? How must we shift our thinking and planning to ensure long-term sustainability? Within two weeks of the school closures, CAIS recognized the need to ensure that the critical lessons from the COVID-19 crisis would be captured and embedded into long range planning for future disruptions.

If you didn’t get to attend the 19th Annual CRC Robotics Competition held from February 13 to 15, 2020, you missed something sensational. The competition is Quebec’s largest and most thrilling hands-on learning event for high school and Cegep students. The excitement and the energy of 500 participating students and thousands of spectators cheering for their favourite teams and robots nearly blew the roof off the Vanier College gymnasium. Twenty-six teams participated in this year’s game called Flip 2020. "We were blown away by the relentless effort and grit displayed by this year’s participants more than ever. With a game requiring strategic thinking and strong decision-making skills, all teams accepted the challenge without skipping a beat. By Saturday, every team had their own game strategies and truly learned what it means to take the right decision at the right time,” states Natasha Vitale, one of the organizers of the CRC Robotics Competition. “As always, we were also very impressed with the kind of cooperation we saw between the competing schools and the teamwork among the participants. We would like to thank Vanier College for their enormous contribution and truly outstanding work in hosting this year's competition and ensuring its success." Everywhere you looked there was a flurry of activity: teams were assembling and hosting their kiosks, groups of students huddled over their robots, going back and forth between their creation and a tool box, sometimes even making major adjustments before the heats; others were carrying their prize robot onto the playing field.
