The Case for the Islands Trust, Made by an Abolitionist

Why it surfaced

The site makes an unusually candid political move: it builds the strongest case for its opponent using the same population, land-conversion, legal, and governance evidence cited by the abolition campaign. Its argument is notably self-critical, conceding that the Trust has a real representation problem while arguing that the remedy is reform rather than dissolution.

A heavily sourced argument defending British Columbia’s Islands Trust from someone who wants the institution abolished.
