Citizens for Foreign Aid Reform (C-FAR) is a Canadian right-wing organization based in Toronto It was founded in 1979 by Paul Fromm after he had left the neo-Nazi Western Guard. C-FAR became closely linked to Canadian Association for Freedom of Expression (CAFE), which was founded in 1981. The main issues on C-FAR's agenda have been opposition to foreign aid and immigration. Fromm (standing) addressing an American Friends of the British National Party meeting in March 2000. ... This article should be merged with [[{{{with}}}]] development aid and humanitarian aid Foreign aid, international aid or development assistance is when one country helps another country through some form of donation. ... Immigration is the act of moving to or settling in another country or region, temporarily or permanently. ...

In 1987 the Toronto Star described C-FAR as part of a "spider web" of rightist radicals. This prompted a reply by Fromm where he protested that description: The Toronto Star is a major metropolitan newspaper produced in the city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. ...

In both foreign aid and immigration matters, Citizens for Foreign Aid Reform is doing nothing more radical than urging the government to implement the will of the majority.

They publish a monthly news-letter as well as the Canadian Immigration Hotline. C-FAR has also published booklets by Kenneth H.W. Hilborn, a history professor at the University of Western Ontario, and the journalists Doug Collins (1920-2001) and Peter Brimelow . The University of Western Ontario is located in London, Ontario, Canada. ... Peter Brimelow is a British-American journalist especially prolific and influential in the area of immigration policy. ...

Both Hilborn and Brimelow have also been participants in C-FAR's speaking tours. Other speakers sponsored by C-FAR include the historian Wayne Lutton, and the lawyer Ron Leitch, president of the Alliance for the Preservation of English in Canada (APEC).

Apart from the main issues, C-FAR's publications also support white supremacy, gun rights, and a form of environmentalism.

It appears that the activities of C-FAR have decreased after Fromm's problems with the Peel Board of Education began in 1993.
