In the finale of There Is a List, we explore what it means to flip the lens on surveillance. After months of investigating blacklists that target pro-Palestine voices, we meet the activists behind Reverse Canary Mission, a grassroots initiative documenting Zionist supporters, and examine the ethics of “the anti-list.”

We also hear from Dr. Yipeng Ge, a public health physician whose talk on Gaza was cancelled by Canada’s federal health agency. He shares the slides that were deemed “too controversial” and the concrete steps he believes Canadians can take to end their country’s complicity in genocide.

In Canada, charities are supposed to do good: feed people, educate, heal. But what happens when tax-subsidized dollars help fund groups that silence journalists and defend apartheid?

In this episode, we investigate HonestReporting Canada (HRC), a media watchdog with charitable status that’s been accused of doxxing reporters and shaping pro-Israel narratives in Canadian newsrooms. We trace where their millions come from and whose really footing the bill.

With help from journalist Samira Moheyddin and researcher Miles Howe, we uncover how Canada’s charity system has become a backdoor for Zionist philanthropy – one that allows wealthy donors and private foundations to move money through tax breaks and loopholes, sometimes all the way to Israel. Edit (October 22, 2025): HRC has updated its donation page to say it cannot issue tax receipts, a change from how it used to present itself. HRC never held a charitable status and relied on a separate but connected group, HR Canada Charitable Organization, which does, raising questions about how the two operate.

Since October 7, Israel has killed more than 270 journalists in Gaza, the highest toll ever recorded in a single conflict. With international media barred from entry, these journalists have been our only eyes and ears on the ground.

Episode three uncovers how Canadian journalists reporting on Palestine are being silenced through smear campaigns and institutional failures. We hear from Iman Kassam, a former CTV Montreal reporter, whose video story on Indigenous solidarity was erased after pressure from a pro-Israel media watchdog, and Samira Mohyeddin, a former CBC producer repeatedly targeted by the same group for her reporting.

The Target reveals how organizations like HonestReporting Canada weaponize claims of media bias to intimidate journalists and reshape coverage of Israel and Palestine under the quiet complicity of Canadian newsrooms.
