Anytime a charity tells you they are being punitively audited that’s a pretty sure sign there is something waiting to be discovered. Being audited costs them virtually nothing. Charities are not supposed to engage in political activity. Period. And charities in Canada have a lamentable record of spending quite a lot of money on everything but what they are ostensibly organized to do. They’ve been poorly supervised for decades. I won’t donate to any charity that hasn’t been audited recently. The claim by OXFAM that they are being punished by having to disclose where they spend the money they raise? How exactly is that a punishment? What are you afraid of exactly?
