Where this list came from

The source, and how we filtered it

Source List of charities, 2024 (T3010 Registered Charity Information Return open data), Canada Revenue Agency, on open.canada.ca (2024 edition (returns for fiscal periods ending in 2024), dataset refreshed 2026-04-30)
LicenseOpen Government Licence – Canada, as stated on the dataset.
Cite asContains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada.
How we filtered itThe Identification, Financial data (line 4700 total revenue) and Charity Contact Web Addresses files of the 2024 edition. Every registered charity with positive revenue, ranked by it. Excluded as other cohorts' members: a charity whose name equals a row in ca-hospitals, ca-school-boards or the universities-and-colleges roster; one sharing a website host with such a row whose name says hospital, school or college; CRA hospital, school-board and university sub-categories where the name agrees; and names saying university, cégep, polytechnic, hospital, health authority, CISSS/CIUSSS or school board. None of this applies to foundations, auxiliaries, students' or alumni associations or research institutes. The top 1,000 that remain (611 excluded above list rank 1,611). Address: the first usable web address the charity gives CRA on its return (high), normalized to the site root.

The filtering is ours and is disclosed as ours. The source published a list; the decision about which rows of it belong in a cohort was a judgment call, and it is written down so somebody can disagree with it.

By dimension

What the cohort earns, dimension by dimension

The mean share of each dimension’s available points that this cohort earned. Low here means the whole sector is weak on it, not that one site dragged an average down. The per-site spread is in the dataset.

How much of each site we read

The cap is 32 URLs and it is a ceiling, not a promise. A portal whose every link points at a different host yields one page; a university yields the full sample. The median here is 32, the range 1–32, published so that "we sampled 32 URLs per site" cannot become a claim the data does not support.

17 sites in this cohort served a certificate we could not verify. They were read anyway and scored normally, because reporting no response for a site every browser loads would describe our TLS stack rather than the site, and each one carries the finding in its row.

Every site

Every 1,000, named, with a report for each

Whether or not it has been scanned. Rows with no website on record, sites that were unreachable and sites that turned us away stay in the table with the reason on them, and none of them enters an average: dropping them would shrink the population to the part that was easy to measure. A few points between two neighbors is noise. The box filters every row in the cohort, not only the page you are on; click a header to sort the rows on this page by name or by score.
