Canada Bans Crypto Donations in Politics

Published 4 days, 18 hours ago
Description

Canadas government introduces Bill C-25, banning cryptocurrency donations to political campaigns, citing transparency concerns. The bill, which has been in the works since 2021, lumps crypto with money orders and prepaid cards as hard-to-trace funds. Despite being allowed since 2019, crypto donations have seen little action in real elections due to strict rules and lack of tax receipts. The bill aims to address concerns about verifying donors and hiding foreign cash, following similar moves by the UK.
