Canadian Constitution Foundation

The Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) is a national, non-partisan charity dedicated to defending the constitutional rights and freedoms of Canadians. Founded in 2002, the CCF aims to uphold these rights as guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms[1][3].

Mission and Objectives

The CCF's mission focuses on maintaining Canada's constitution, including its federal structure and division of powers, as outlined in the Constitution Act, 1867[1]. It primarily engages in litigation related to individual freedoms, economic liberty, and equal opportunity. The organization also emphasizes promoting civic engagement and awareness about constitutional rights among Canadians[3].

Programs and Activities

  • Litigation: The CCF provides pro-bono legal assistance to individuals whose freedoms have been allegedly violated by government at any level—federal, provincial, or municipal[4][5].
  • Education: Through its education programs, the CCF aims to inform Canadians about their constitutional rights. Notably, it maintains a comprehensive online database called Primary Documents, which archives core constitutional documents[3]. The CCF also operates the Runnymede Society, a student membership organization that fosters discussions on constitutionalism, liberty, and the rule of law[3].
  • Communication: The organization runs a YouTube series called Freedom Updates, which analyzes recent developments in the field of constitutional rights[3].

Funding and Registration

The Canadian Constitution Foundation is registered as a Canadian charity (Number: 86617 6654 RR0001) and is also recognized as a 501(c)(3) organization in the United States (EIN 98-0677622)[4]. The organization relies on donations from various sources, and while it does disclose some donor information, many contributions remain anonymous[4].

Public Impact

The CCF has gained significant media presence, reporting over 1,600 media mentions in a recent fiscal year. Additionally, there was a substantial increase in its YouTube subscribers, reflecting growing public engagement with its activities[3].
