As a public interest, non-partisan law firm and registered charity, the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms provides legal representation free of charge, to protect the rights and freedoms of all Canadians, which are guaranteed under our constitution.
In 2020, COVID created legal issues and challenges that are unprecedented in Canadian history.
The Justice Centre issues official tax receipts to donors for donations of $50 or more. The Justice Centre does not ask for, or accept, any government funding. We rely entirely on the voluntary donations of Canadians who support our work in support of freedom and justice.
Canadians have a strong history of giving to support their principles and beliefs. As the Justice Centre receives no government funding, we depend on the generosity of people like you and your dedication to the defence of our freedoms.

Meet some of the clients you help when you make a donation to the Justice Centre.
Pastor James Coates
Pastor James Coates was jailed in Edmonton for exercising his Charter freedoms of conscience, religion, association and peaceful assembly. The Justice Centre represents Pastor Coates and Grace Life Church free of charge. Alberta Health Services (AHS) has ticketed Pastor Coates, taken Grace Life and Pastor Coates to court, and even attempted to completely shut the Church down. Pastor Coates was charged with breaking public health orders for holding church services and jailed because he could not in good conscience agree to stop holding church.
Sandeep Benipal
Sandeep is one of more than a dozen aestheticians in Vancouver who faced business closure, loss of income and financial hardship after being the target of human rights complaints filed by Jessica Yaniv. Born a biological male and surgically un-transitioned, Yaniv was denied intimate waxing services by Sandeep due to lack of personal comfort, safety concerns, lack of training, and religious objections. Yaniv asked for damages in excess of $15,000 per esthetician, alleging discrimination based on gender identity and gender expression. The Justice Centre successfully defended Sandeep.
