Note: Ci has used administrative and fundraising costs as reported in the charity’s T3010 filing with the CRA for F2021, F2020, and F2019. Ci used iTeams Canada’s T3010 to report international program costs. Ci backed international program costs out of Canadian program costs, affecting Canadian program costs by ($1.0m) in F2021, ($1.2m) in F2020, and ($1.5m) in F2019. Ci removed government revenue as reported on iTeams Canada’s T3010 from other revenue. This affected other revenue by ($91k) in F2021, ($158k) in F2020, and $0 in F2019.
