There is an interesting post in the reddit thread about this issue:

The fact that organizations, both big and small, are being audited has caused a number of organizations to pull back in fear of doing too much. Prior to the CRA's redefinition of "political activity", non-profits have been allowed to spend up to 10% of their budget on political activity. Prior to this recent crackdown, even the much publicly maligned David Suzuki Foundation, which people like to hold up as the example of an organization that spends too much on political activity, was only spending roughly 6% of its budget on it. DSF was always open and transparent on this subject and anybody who wanted to know could have picked up a phone or emailed and gotten this answer.
