Documented examples
- 974 Followers and a Closed Door — Between 2022 and 2025 the Islands Trust closed Mayne Island's walk-in office and ended print newspaper public notices, leaving islanders to track development decisions through a website and a Facebook page the local paper noted had 974 followers. Mayne's own elected trustee had already told Trust Council that "people are not happy with the Islands Trust" — an unease with a paper trail on the island going back to at least 2011.
