Very basic question I should probably have asked a year or two ago, but can a Champion choose a Cause that grants them Sanctification (Grandeur, Iniquity, Redemption, etc.) if their deity is one that normally doesn't grant that like Pharasma or Nethys? Or are they limited to the Causes that don't sanctify you, like Justice, Liberation or Obedience?

It's literally written in the class description under sanctification...
If the deity lists “none,” you can choose only options that don't require the holy or unholy trait.

Blave's correct. In the Champion class, you pick your Deity first for this reason. That determines what you can sanctify as (Holy/Unholy) or if you can't.
Your cause must be compatible with that, since a cause that requires Holy sanctification isn't an option if your Deity doesn't allow Holy sanctification. So yeah, the deities that don't allow sanctification are limited to the causes that don't require it. This is in the Deity/Sanctification section of Champion, before the Cause part:
Depending on your deity, their sanctification can make you holy or unholy. This commits you to one side of a struggle over souls. Whether you become holy, unholy, or neither will limit your choice of causes, devotion spells, and feats.
If you “can be” holy or unholy according to your deity's sanctification entry, you make that choice, and if you “must be” holy or unholy, you gain the trait automatically. If the deity lists “none,” you can choose only options that don't require the holy or unholy trait. If you are holy or unholy and gain the opposing trait in some way, you lose the previous trait until you atone.
