Documented examples
- The Island That Left Still Gets the Bill — Bowen Island incorporated as a municipality in 1999 and runs its own planning department, yet the Islands Trust Act still compels it to levy a Trust tax its council cannot appeal. That levy has risen 52.8% in three years — and Bowen's own mayor has now put a 46-page challenge to the formula on the table.
