Here is a photo of Ken McVay, director of WWW.NIZKOR.ORG-- does he
not have the uncouth look as to fit the profile of a person who
would say in general regarding child porn: "I am weary of seeing the
issue of "child porn" blown out of proportion (I've been on and

Would any of you want to leave this person, Ken McVay,
alone with your children?
What follows is proof positive that a web site has an elaborate
tax scam which allows it to receive "tax exempt donations" which
it is not entitled to under CCRA regulations.
NIZKOR is neither a NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION nor is it a
REGISTERED CHARITY but due to the ongoing tax scam it enjoys
the full privileges at the expense of the Canadian revenue payers.

Thank you for your e-mail.
The Charities Directorate of the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency
is responsible for the registration and compliance of charities in
Canada.
These organizations are similar to "exempt organizations" as are
registered in the United States. However, we have no record of a
registered charity by the name of Nizkor.org.
Additionally, due to the confidentiality provisions of the Canadian
Income Tax Act, I am unable to disclose information concerning a
particular organization's tax affairs, including measures taken or
to be taken by the Department resulting from complaints. However,
I wish to assure you that all complaints received by the Department
are treated seriously and are fully investigated, where appropriate.
Finally, the annual information returns of Canadian registered
charities are available to the public. However, as you will note
from the above, Nizkor.org is not a registered charity.
The non-profit information return
which you describe is not available to the public.
Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention.
Sincerely,
Blaine Langdon
Charities Directorate

Glad to see you making that a public record. Care to explain how a
website not being either an "NPO nor a Charity" can operate as you
do and issue tax receipts?

Income Tax Guide to the Non-Profit Organization (NPO)
Information Return Includes Form T1044
[...]
An NPO described in paragraph 149(1)(l) of the Income Tax Act is a
club,society, or association that is organized and operated solely for:
social welfare;
civic improvement;
pleasure or recreation;
or any other purpose except profit.
Also, no part of the income of these organizations can be payable
to or otherwise available for the personal benefit of any proprietor,
member, or shareholder, unless the proprietor, member, or shareholder
was a club, society,or association whose primary purpose was to
promote amateur athletics in Canada.
<<I don't think Nizkor promotes amateur athletics in Canada!
Please note that the law states above: "no part of the income of
these organizations can be payable to or otherwise available for
the personal benefit of any proprietor.." yet Ken McVay is the
proprietor or director of Nizkor (a website) and he is on public
record (also shown below) as responding to this question:
"Does Ken McVay pay himself a salary for his work for Nizkor?"
with "Yup."
Plainly this violates the above and seeing how Nizkor operates
as a back room operation from the "proprietor's" own house (proven
below) this operation should be very questionable!
Finally note that Ken McVay announced in a public posting above:
"Nizkor is neither an NPO nor a Charity. Nizkor is a website."
How does a "website" warrant receiving "exempt donations"?
Doc Tavish Comments>>
Distinguishing non-profit organizations from registered charities
An NPO is not a registered charity. A registered charity is a charity
that has specifically applied to the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency
for registration and has been accepted as such.
A registered charity can issue charitable receipts for tax purposes.
An NPO does not have to register either federally or provincially to
maintain its privileged tax status.
Generally, registered charities also have to disburse 80% of the funds
for which they issued charitable receipts on their own charitable
activities or as gifts to qualified donees. NPOs cannot issue tax
receipts for donations or membership fees contributed, and they
are not required to disburse a specified percentage of their earnings.
<End of CCRA web page>
Notice what CCRA said about "issu[ing] charitable receipts for tax
purposes"? Look at McVay's operation and see if it complies with the
law stated above: "NPOs cannot issue tax receipts for donations.."
yet Ken McVay's very own NIZKOR page says:
"Donations over $10.00 will receive a Canadian tax receipt."
Ken McVay also claims that NIZKOR is NOT a charity
as shown down further in this post.

How does Mr. Bradbury "know" these things?
How does Mr. Bradbury "know" that Nizkor is a "charitable
organization?" (Can he show that anyone from Nizkor has ever claimed to
be such an organization?)
<end>
Well now we know Nizkor is not a "charitable organization" so it has
to be an NPO?! So why does Ken McVay's NPO declare at its web page:
"Donations over $10.00 will receive a Canadian tax receipt" which
would be in violation of: "NPOs cannot issue tax receipts for
donations" but Ken McVay lies to a person who's an object of his smear
campaign: "McVay/Nizkor" has never issued tax receipts of any sort.."
Then again McVay admitted higher up in this post:
"Nizkor is neither an NPO nor a Charity. Nizkor is a website."
See how NIZKOR skirts all criteria of the tax laws?

You're a fraud McVay and you need to be exposed!
We know that the Nizkor website relies on charitable donations in
order to survive. We also accept that any organization whose survival
depends on charitable donations should make its records open to the
public. Will Ken McVay answer these questions as he is the director

Questions:
1) What is the tax number of Nizkor?
2) What is the physical address of Nizkor?
3) What is the phone number of Nizkor?
4) Where can one find the organizational papers for Nizkor?
a) How many people compose the Nizkor staff?
b) What are the financial responsibilities of Nizkor?
5) What is the evidence offered that Nizkor is authorized to
solicit tax free contributions?
6) How much money does Nizkor Org receive yearly as charitable
donations?
7) You show below that you pay yourself-- what is your yearly pay?

by ferry from Vancouver, British Columbia, another half-hour by jitney

split-level in a middle-class neighborhood. There is nothing
distinctive about its location. .... I am taken to a back room, filled
with computer equipment, monitors, and books... Seated in front of the

thin, with short hair and glasses, wired to the world through his ISP.

house... " <END>
A question for all reading this:
How many organizations which receive charitable contributions operate
from the backroom of the director's home? He claims to be non-profit
and it appears that he would have a low overhead-- so how much money
does Ken McVay receive for his backroom operation?
9) Why should anyone wish to donate to an organization who has a

Also, no part of the income of these organizations can be payable to or
otherwise available for the personal benefit of any proprietor, member,
or
shareholder, unless the proprietor, member, or shareholder was a club,
society,or association whose primary purpose was to promote amateur
athletics in Canada.
<<I don't think Nizkor promotes amateur athletics in Canada! Please note
that the law states above: "no part of the income of these organizations
can be payable to or otherwise available for the personal benefit of any
proprietor.." yet Ken McVay is the proprietor or director of Nizkor (a
website) and he is on public record (also shown above) as responding to
this question: "Does Ken McVay pay himself a salary for his work for
Nizkor?" with "Yup." Plainly this violates the above and seeing how
Nizkor operates as a back room operation from the "proprietor's" own
house (proven above) this operation should be very questionable!
Finally note that Ken McVay announced in a public posting above:
"Nizkor is neither an NPO nor a Charity. Nizkor is a website."
How does a "website" warrant receiving "exempt donations"?

Distinguishing non-profit organizations from registered charities
An NPO is not a registered charity. A registered charity is a charity
that has specifically applied to the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency
for registration and has been accepted as such.
A registered charity can issue charitable receipts for tax purposes.
An NPO does not have to register either federally or provincially to
maintain its privileged tax status.
