The centre has been involved in cases including Allen v Alberta, Wilson v University of Calgary, Yaniv v. Various Waxing Salons, and the revocation of vanity licence plates. They have also intervened on behalf of Trinity Western University in their fight to retain anti-homosexual college rules, and the Alberta far-right news outlet Rebel News. In 2021, their founder John Carpay took a seven week leave of absence after hiring a private investigator to surveil Manitoba Chief Justice Glenn Joyal, who was presiding over a case the centre had brought.
JCCF was one of the lead backers of the Freedom Convoy in early 2022, providing its legal support.
