Message from The Honourable Anne Kang Minister of Municipal Affairs Islands Trust 50 th Anniversary – June 5, 2024 _______________________________________________________________________ Thank you for inviting me to be a part of this exciting day to celebrate the 50 th anniversary of the Islands Trust. I extend my gratitude to everyone at the Islands Trust, Council, the community and everyone who has played a role over the history of the Trust. Today, you are doing more than celebrating an anniversary, you’re celebrating the commitment to preserve and protect the natural wonder of the Gulf Islands, meeting the challenges of island life and creating opportunities to reconcile with local First Nations while confronting contemporary challenges head‐on. Although the people who work to serve their communities oftentimes remain unseen, they are still a foundation of healthy communities and ensure the islands’ continued prosperity. This Islands Trust is an inspiring example of what we can accomplish when community, regional districts, the Province and local First Nations come together to serve the people and honour its wild places. Congratulations on all that the Trust has achieved in reaching this milestone and in ensuring the people of the Gulf Islands have a dedicated group of public servants focused on preservation and protection, while fostering resilient and vibrant island communities and natural places. Sincerely, Honourable Anne Kang Minister of Municipal Affairs
