In April 2013, an allegation of plagiarism was made by a former employee for a document written for and produced by the Aboriginal Healing Foundation in Ottawa, Ontario. The Aboriginal Healing Foundation had commissioned the report which included three bodies of work compiled by employees and contractors of the Canadian Aboriginal AIDS Network, to which it owned copyright. This allegation has never been proven nor admitted.
